    X = smallest angle, y = middle angle, z = largest angle

    x + y + z = 180 ... interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees

    y = 1/2z ... z = 2y

    y = 3x ... 1/3y = x

    1/3y + y + 2y = 180 ... multiply everything by 3

    y + 3y + 6y = 540

    10y = 540

    y = 540/10

    y = 54 < = = the middle angle

    z = 2y

    z = 2 (54)

    z = 108 < = = = largest angle

    1/3y = x

    1/3 (54) = x

    54/3 = x

    18 = x < = = = smallest angle
