Let's consider the values of the 3
angles:
x = the value in degrees, of the first
angle;
y = the value in degrees, of the second
angle;
z = the value in degree, of the third
angle.
The equation which express the constraint from
enunciation that the second angle is 20 degrees greater than the first angle,
is:
y = x+20, so x = y-20
The
third angle is twice than the second.
z =
2y
We know also that the sum of the angles in a triangle is
180 degrees.
x+y+z = 180
We'll
write each unknown depending on the second angle, y:
y-20 +
y + 2y = 180
4y = 180+20
4y =
200
y = 50
degrees
So, the first angle will
have:
x = y-20
x =
50-20
y = 30
degrees
The third angle is
:
z = 2y
z =
2*50
z = 100
degrees.
