Find the measures of the angles of each triangle (in degrees) and classify the triangle as acute/right/obtuse and scalene/isosceles/equilateral (one from each triple)

Explanation:

given :

A=5x - 10

B = 3x

C= 2x - 10

solution:

A+B+C = 180°

5x - 10 + 3x+ 2x - 10 = 180

10x -20 = 180

10x = 200

x = 20

A = 5(20)-10 = 100-10 = 90°

B = 3x = 3(20) = 60°

C = 2x-10 =2(20)-10 =40-10 = 30°

this is the right triangle and scalene triangle
