4. The Angles of a Triangle are in the Ratio of 1:3:2? Find the Value of each angle along with the percentage of each angle?

Solution:

Since the angles are in the ratio 1:3:2 total parts = 1+3+2 = 6

The measure of the first angle = 1/6*180 = 30 degrees

The measure of the second angle = 3/6*180 = 90 degrees

The measure of the third angle = 2/6*180 = 60 degrees

First Angle Percentage = 1/6*100 = 16.66 %

Second Angle Percentage = 3/6*100 = 50%

Third Angle Percentage = 2/6*100 = 33.33%
