Example The ratio of the angles of a triangle are 4:4:7. Find the measure of each angle. *Usually we reduce by dividing. Now we will work backwards by multiplying 4x + 4x + 7x = 180 15x = 180 x = 12 4x = 4(12) = 48 4x = 4(12) = 48 7x = 7(12) = 84
Try on Own • The ratio of the measures of 2 complementary angles is 1:2. Find the measure of each angle. • The measures of the angles of a pentagon are in the ratio 1:2:3:6:15. Find the measure of each angle. Answers: • 30,60 • 20,40,60,120,300
