Q6 of 69 Page 10

If one angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the other two, show that the triangle is a right triangle.

If one of the angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of other two.

i.e. ∠B = ∠A + ∠C

Now, in

Sum of all angles of triangle is 180^o

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180^o

∠B + ∠B = 180^o [Therefore, ∠A + ∠C = ∠B]

2∠B = 180^o

∠B = 90^o

Therefore, ABC is right angled triangle.

The angles of a triangle are arranged ascending order of magnitude. If the difference between two consecutive angles is 10°, find the three angles.

5

Two angles of a triangle are equal and the third angle is greater than each of those angles by 30°. Determine all the angles of the triangle.

ABC is a triangle in which ∠A = 72°, the internal bisectors of angles B and C meet in O. Find the magnitude of ∠BOC.
