If three angles of a triangle are (18x+6

), (10x+30

) and (15x+15

), then the triangle is:

  1. A
    scalene
  2. B
    equilateral
  3. C
    isosceles
  4. D
    right angled

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The sum of all interior angles in a triangle is always 180

.

(18x+6)+(10x+30)+(15x+15)=180
(18+10+15)x+(6+30+15)=180
43x+51=180
43x=180−51
43x=129
x=
43
129

=3
Now, substitute x=3 back into the angle expressions:

First angle=18(3)+6=54+6=60



Second angle=10(3)+30=30+30=60



Third angle=15(3)+15=45+15=60



Since all three interior angles are exactly 60

, the triangle is an equilateral triangle.
