Three angles of a triangle are in the ratio 3:4:5. Find the measure of each angle.


Open in App
Solution

Since the ratio of angle is 3:4:5.

Hence, let angles be 3x,4x,5x.

Now, according to the angle sum property of a triangle, the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180o.

3x+4x+5x=180o

12x=180o

x=180o12=15o

Therefore, the first angle is, 3x=3×15o=45o.

The second angle is, 4x=4×15o=60o.

The third angle is 5x=5×15o=75o.

Hence, all three angles have been measured.
