If the measures of the angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 19:13:4, then the expressions 19x, 13x, and 4xrepresent the measures of these angles. Find these angle measures.

Well this isn't college math lol

You do 19x + 13x + 4x = 26x

180 divided by 26x = x = 6.92307...

plug in x then round to tenth

6.9 x 19 = 131.1 degrees

6.9 x 13 = 89.7 degrees

6.9 x 4 = 27.6 degrees

interior angles of a triangle add up to 180

19x + 13x + 4x = 180
36x = 180
x = 180/36
x = 5

19x = 19(5) = 95 <== heres one
13x = 13(5) = 65 <== and another
4x = 4(5) = 20 <==and another

19:13:4 = 95:65:20
