Answer:

33.75°

Explanation:

Given data

Ratio= 3:3:10

combined ratio= 3+3+10= 16

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

Hence the smallest angle is represented by the ratio 3

therefore let the angle be x

Applying the part to all method

3/16= x/180

16x= 180*3

16x=540

x= 540/16

x= 33.75°

Hence the smallest angle is 33.75°
