A triangle has angle measures that are related as follows: • The largest angle is eight times the smallest angle.

• The middle angle is triple the smallest angle..

a) write an equation to model the relationship

b) solve the equation and then determine the measure of each angle. Sketch the triangle and label the angle measures.

  a) a +8a +3a = 180°

  b) 15°, 45°, 120°

  c) see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Let 'a' represent the measure of the smallest angle. The largest angle is 8a, and the middle angle is 3a. The sum of angles, as always, is 180°.

  a +8a +3a = 180° . . . . . . equation modeling the relationship

b)

  12a = 180° . . . . . . collect terms

  a = 15° . . . . . . . divide by 12

  3a = 3×15° = 45°

  8a = 8×15° = 120°

The angle measures are 15°, 45°, and 120°.

c)

see attached. We have arbitrarily let the shortest side be 10 units.

At a constant it will take one hour to travel 32 mi.at that speed it will take 1/2 hr to travel the remaining 16 mi.it will take 1+1/2 hr to travel the 48mi @ 32mph.so 1 hr = 60 min& 1/2 hr = 30 min1+1/2 hr = 90 min.there are 60s in each 90 × 60 = 3600 seconds.the real question seriously is he why are they driving so slow? ! lol.
