Homework Statement
The three angles of a scalene triangle are x degrees, (x-12) degrees and (2x+6) degrees. What sizes are the angles?[/B]
Homework Equations
Triangle = a+b+c =180
Scalene = no equal size or angles[/B]
The Attempt at a Solution
So what do you do with (x-12) degrees and (2x+6) degrees?
I tried putting them all in an equation to isolate x but it was an incorrect approach. I can't equally divide the triangle since it's a scalene triangle. Can someone give me a clue?
x+(x-12)+(2x+6)=180
x=93/2[/B]
