Given:
The measurement of the angles of a triangle are 3b,2b,and 4b.
To find:
The smallest angle.
Solution:
According to the angle sum property, the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
[Angle sum property]
Divide both sides by 9.
Now,
Therefore, the smallest angle is 40 degrees.
Answer:
third side = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
let the third side be x, then
x² + 40² = 41², that is
x² + 1600 = 1681 ( subtract 1600 from both sides )
x² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = = 9
The third side is 9
