Angle A = x
Angle B = 3x
Angle C = 6x - 7
=================================
x + 3x + 6x - 7 = 180
10x - 7 = 180
x = 18.7
==================================
18.7 + 3(18.7) + 6(18.7) - 7
18.7 + 56.1 + 112.2 - 7 = 180
===============================
Angle A = 18.7 degrees
Angle B = 56.1 degrees
Angle C = 105.2 degrees
==============================
