The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the measures of one of the angles in a triangle when the angles are in Arithmetic Progression (A.P.), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Angles in A.P.**: - Let the three angles of the triangle be represented as \( A - D \), \( A \), and \( A + D \), where \( A \) is the middle angle and \( D \) is the common difference. 2. **Using the Sum of Angles in a Triangle**: - The sum of the angles in any triangle is \( \pi \) radians (or 180 degrees). Therefore, we can write the equation: \[ (A - D) + A + (A + D) = \pi \] 3. **Simplifying the Equation**: - When we simplify the left side, we get: \[ A - D + A + A + D = 3A \] - The \( -D \) and \( +D \) cancel each other out. 4. **Setting Up the Equation**: - We now have: \[ 3A = \pi \] 5. **Solving for A**: - To find \( A \), we divide both sides of the equation by 3: \[ A = \frac{\pi}{3} \] 6. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, one of the angles in the triangle, which is \( A \), measures \( \frac{\pi}{3} \) radians. ### Final Answer: The measure of one of the angles in radians is \( \frac{\pi}{3} \). ---
