x, the smallest angle measure
smallest         x
second          2x
largest         4x-30
SUM             180

It is a  RUDE  mathematical  MISTAKE  to state that  "the angles in a triangle must equal 180".


The sum of angles - YES, but not the separate angles.


           Do you try to create your own problem from scratch ?


                    Learn from textbooks on how to do it . . .


                            Usually it takes several years of concentrated work to learn the style and the meaning . . .


                                    Happy learning !
