The difference between the largest and smallest angles of a triangle whose angles are in the ratio 5:3:10 is:

  • A.50°
  • B.60°
  • C.70°
  • D.80°

Answer: C

Let the angles be 5x, 3x, and 10x.

5x + 3x + 10x = 180°

18x = 180° => x = 10°

The angles are 50°, 30°, and 100°.

The largest angle is 100° and the smallest is 30°.

The difference is 100° - 30° = 70°.
