(i) The sides of a triangle are in the ratio

   

and its perimeter is

   

cm. Find the lengths of sides. (ii) If the angles of a triangle are in the ratio

   

, find the angles.

(i) It is given that

Perimeter of triangle =

   

cm

Ratio among sides =

   

Here the sum of ratios =

   

We know that

Length of first side =

   

cm

Length of second side =

   

cm

Length of third side =

   

cm

Therefore, the sides are

   

cm,

   

cm and

   

cm.

(ii) We know that

Sum of all the angles of a triangle =

   

Here the ratio among angles =

   

Sum of ratios =

   

So we get

First angle =

   

Second angle =

   

Third angle =

   

Hence, the angles are
