In a triangle, the measure of the first angle is five times the measure of the second angle. the measure of the third angle is 40 less than five times the measure of the second angle. what is the measure, in degrees, of each angle?

The measure of first angle, second angle, and the third angle is 100, 20 and 60.

Given that,

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

F = 5s                

F + s + T = 180

T = 5s - 40

Now

5s + s + 5s - 40 = 180

11s = 220

s = 20

F = 100

T = 100 - 40

= 60

s = 20   F = 100    T = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

F = 5s                F + s + T = 180

T = 5s - 40

I picked numbers until I found the one that worked. For me, 20 worked for the second angle.

arrange the equations with like terms in columns.

analyze the coefficients of x or y.

add the equations and solve for the remaining variable.

substitute the value into either equation and solve.

check the solution.
