1. If the angle of a triangle are in the ratio if 5:3:7,then what triangle is it
----
Solve for "x":
5x + 3x + 7x = 180
15x = 180
x = 12
---
3x = 36 degrees
5x = 60 degrees
7x = 84 degrees
----
Type of triangle: scalene
==================================
2. The angle which is twice its supplement is ?
Let the angle be "x".
Its supplement is "180-x".
---
Equation:
x = 2(180-x)
x = 360-2x
3x = 360
x = 120 degrees
