Solution

We know that one of the angles of the given triangle is 60°. (Given)We also know that the other two angles of the triangle are in the ratio 1:2.Let one of the other two angles be x.Therefore, the second one will be 2x.We know that the sum of all the three angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.60°+x°+2x°=180°3x°=180°-60°3x°=120°x°=120°3x°=40°2x°=2×402x°=80°Hence, we can conclude that the required angles are 40° and 80°.
