The second angle in a triangle is 3/4 as large as the first one. the third in a triangle is 2/3 as large as the second angle. find the angle measure and draw a possible figure

OpenStudy (jamanorthi):

can someone help me!!!!!

OpenStudy (jamanorthi):

its okay

OpenStudy (raden):

form the smallest, let the sides of the triangle is a, b, c. according information above, we have : a = a b = 3/4 a c = 2/3 b = 2/3 (3/4 a) = 1/2 a we knowed that sum of them equals 180, so a + b + c = 180 now subtitute b and c (in a), get a + b + c = 180 a + 3/4 a + 1/2 a = 180 solve for a, first

OpenStudy (jamanorthi):

okay then

OpenStudy (raden):

a + 3/4 a + 1/2 a = 180 solve for a, first after that, subtitute the value of a into the equations of b and c above

OpenStudy (jamanorthi):

okay thank u very much
