    Question

    Angles of a triangle are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5. Find

    the sum of the largest and smallest angle of the triangle.
    A 120° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 150° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 135° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 100° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the measure of the angles of the given triangle be '3x°', '4x°', and '5x°', respectively. Sum of angles of a triangle = 3x + 4x + 5x = 180° So, x = (180°/12) = 15° Therefore, the sum of smallest and largest angles of the triangle = 3x + 5x = 8x = 8 × 15° = 120° Hence, option a.
