Answer: 80°

Explanation:

By Angle Sum Property of a Triangle, all angles in a Triangle add up to 180°

Finding the Value of ‘x’ :-

2x + 3x + 4x = 180
5x + 4x = 180
9x = 180
x = 180/9
=> x = 20

Finding each Angle :-

2x = 2(20) = 2 * 20 = 40°
3x = 3(20) = 3 * 20 = 60°
4x = 4(20) = 4 * 20 = 80°

Hence, the Largest Angle is 80°
