Question

The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Find the
measure of the smallest angle.
(3x-9)°
(x+15)

Answer 1

Answer:

318.6

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x-9) + (x+15) = 180

3x (x+15) -9 (x+15)

4x + 45x - 9x + 6 = 180

40x + 6 = 180

40x = 180 - 6

40x = 174

x = 4.34

(3x-9) = 4.34 * 3x-9 = 4.02

(x+15) = 4.34 + 15 = 19.34

180 - (4.02 + 19.34)

= 180 - 23.36

= 156.64

hope this answer helps!!
