The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°. The middle-sized angle measures 3° more than 2 times the smallest angle. The middle-sized angle measures 109° less than the largest angle. Find the measure of each angle.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

13° , 29° , 138°

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the smallest angle , then

2x + 3 is the middle angle and

2x + 3 + 109 is the largest angle

summing the 3 angles and equating to 180

x + 2x + 3 + 2x + 3 + 109 = 180 , that is

5x + 115 = 180 ( subtract 115 from 180 )

5x = 65 ( divide both sides by 5

x = 13

2x + 3 = 2(13) + 3 = 26 + 3 = 29

2x + 3 + 109 = 29 + 109 = 138

the 3 angles are 13° , 29° , 138°
