The largest and the second largest angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 13 : 12 respectively. The smallest angle is 20% of the sum of the largest and the second largest angles. What is the sum of the smallest and the second largest angles ?
A$120^°$
B $108^°$
C$100^°$
D$102^°$

Correct answer is: \(102^°\)

Explanation:

Smallest angle

\(= (13+12)\times\frac{20}{100}=5\)

Ratio of angles = 13 : 12: 5

Sum of smallest and second largest angles

\(=\frac{180 \times(12 +5)}{(13+12+5)}\)

\(=\frac{180 \times 17}{30}\)

\(= 102^o\)
