In triangle ABC angles A and B have the same measure. If angle C is 3 degrees more than the measure of either. what are the measures of the three angles?
measure of A = x
measure of B = x
measure of C = x+3
-----
Equation:
x + x + x+3 = 180
3x+3 = 180
3x = 177
x = 59 degrees
A = 59 degrees
B = 59 degrees
C = 62 degrees
