Final answer:

The angles of the triangle are 84, 72, and 24 degrees.


Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles of the triangle be 7x, 6x, and 2x. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Therefore, we can write the equation:

7x + 6x + 2x = 180

Combining like terms:

15x = 180

Dividing both sides by 15:

x = 12

Substituting the value of x back into the angles:

7x = 7 * 12 = 84 degrees

6x = 6 * 12 = 72 degrees

2x = 2 * 12 = 24 degrees

Therefore, the measure of each angle is 84, 72, and 24 degrees.
