Given data:

The first angle is ∠A=4x.

The second angle is ∠B=13x.

The third angle is ∠C=19x.

The expression for the angle sum property is,

∠A+∠B+∠C=180degrees.

Substitute the given values in the above expression.

4x+13x+19x=180

36x=180

x=5

Substitute 5 for x in the first angle.

∠A=4(5)

=20 degrees.

Substitute 5 for x in the second angle.

∠B=13(5)

=65 degrees.

Substitute 5 for x in the third angle.

∠A=19(5)

=95 degrees.

Thus, the first angle is 20 degrees, the second angle is 65 degrees, and the third angle is 95 degrees.
