7-3 Angles in Triangles
If you tear off two corners of a triangle and place them next to the third corner, the three angles seem to form a straight line.
Course 3
7-3 Angles in Triangles
Draw a triangle and extend one side. Then draw a line parallel to the extended side, as shown.
The three angles in the triangle can be arranged to form a straight line or 180°.
The sides of the triangle are transversals to the parallel lines.

Additional Example 1A: Finding Angles in Acute, Right and Obtuse Triangles
Find p° in the acute triangle.
73° + 44° + p° = 180°
117° + p° = 180°
p° = 63°

Find the angle measures in the isosceles triangle.
2t° = 118°2 2
t° = 59°
Triangle Sum TheoremCombine like terms.Subtract 62° from both sides.
Divide both sides by 2.
The angles labeled t° measure 59°.Course 3

Find the angle measures in the scalene triangle.
Triangle Sum Theorem
Combine like terms.Divide both sides by 10.
The angle labeled 2x° measures 2(18°) = 36°, the angle labeled 3x° measures 3(18°) = 54°, and the angle labeled 5x° measures 5(18°) = 90°.

The second angle in a triangle is six times as large as the first. The third angle is half as large as the second. Find the angle measures and draw a possible picture.
Let x° = the first angle measure. Then 6x° =
second angle measure, and (6x°) = 3x° =
third angle measure.
