Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Sum of interior angles in a triangle = 180°

∴∠A° + ∠B° + ∠C° = 180°

= 2x° + 4x° + 6x° = 180°

= 12x° = 180°

= x =
(180)/(12)

x = 15


Substitute
this value of x in Angle C:

= 6x°

= 6(15)°

= 90°

This means AC is perpendicular to BC. Also triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle
