See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Given Information.

Ratio of angle measures of a triangle is 1:2:3.

Step 2. Concept Used.

Angle sum property of triangle.

A+B+C=180°

Step 3. Calculation.

According to angle sum property of triangle,

A+B+C=180°

Let angles be x, 2x, and 3x respectively.

Substitute the value ofA, B andC.

x+2x+3x=1806x=180x=1806x=30

Angles are:

1x=1×30=30°

2x=2×30=60°

3x=3×30=90°

Step 4. Conclusion.

Since, one angle is90°, it is a right-angled triangle. Thus, option H is the correct option.
