    Define x:

    Let angle a be x.

    angle a = x

    angle b = 3x + 32

    angle c = x + 58

    Find x:

    Angles in a triangle add up to 180°:

    x + 3x + 32 + x + 58 = 180

    Combine like terms:

    5x + 90 = 180

    Take away 90 from both sides:

    5x = 90

    Divide by 5 on both sides:

    x = 18°

    Find the angles:

    angle a = x = 18°

    angle b = 3x + 32 = 3 (18) + 32 = 86°

    angle c = x + 58 = 18 + 58 = 76°

    Answer: The angles are 18°, 86° and 76°.
