Answer:

40°, 60° and 80°

Explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 3 + 4 = 9 parts

Divide 180° ( sum of angles in a triangle) by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

180° ÷ 9 = 20° ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

2 parts = 2 × 20° = 40°

3 parts = 3 × 20° = 60°

4 parts = 4 × 20° = 80°

The angles in the triangle are 40°, 60°, 80°
