The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps systematically: ### Step 1: Set up the equations based on the given information. We know that: 1. \( \angle A = \frac{\angle B + \angle C}{3} \) (Equation 1) 2. The ratio \( \angle B : \angle C = 2 : 1 \) (Equation 2) Let \( \angle C = x \). Then, from the ratio, we have: - \( \angle B = 2x \) ### Step 2: Use the angle sum property of a triangle. The sum of the angles in a triangle is \( 180^\circ \): \[ \angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ \quad (Equation 3) \] Substituting \( \angle B \) and \( \angle C \) from Equation 2 into Equation 3: \[ \angle A + 2x + x = 180^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ \angle A + 3x = 180^\circ \quad (Equation 4) \] ### Step 3: Substitute \( \angle A \) from Equation 1 into Equation 4. From Equation 1, we have: \[ \angle A = \frac{(2x + x)}{3} = \frac{3x}{3} = x \] Now substitute \( \angle A \) in Equation 4: \[ x + 3x = 180^\circ \] This simplifies to: \[ 4x = 180^\circ \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( x \). Dividing both sides by 4: \[ x = \frac{180^\circ}{4} = 45^\circ \] ### Step 5: Find \( \angle B \) and \( \angle C \). Now that we have \( \angle C = x = 45^\circ \): \[ \angle B = 2x = 2 \times 45^\circ = 90^\circ \] ### Step 6: Find \( \angle A \). Using \( \angle A = x \): \[ \angle A = 45^\circ \] ### Summary of the angles: - \( \angle A = 45^\circ \) - \( \angle B = 90^\circ \) - \( \angle C = 45^\circ \) ### Step 7: Determine the type of triangle. Since \( \angle B = 90^\circ \) and \( \angle A = \angle C = 45^\circ \), triangle ABC is a **right isosceles triangle**. ### Final Answer: - \( \angle A = 45^\circ \) - \( \angle B = 90^\circ \) - \( \angle C = 45^\circ \) - Triangle ABC is a right isosceles triangle. ---
