Question 239650
Can you help me with this problem please?
"If the measures of the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:3:5, the number of degrees in the measure of the smallest angle is"
The angles are x, 3x, and 5x
Equation:
x + 3x + 5x = 180
9x = 180
x = 20
----------------
The smallest angle is x = 20 degrees.
