a triangle has 3 angles, together they add up to 190 degrees. in a right triangle there is one angle that is 90 degrees, meaning the other two add up to 90 degrees. the ratio between them is 1:2 a 1/3 of 90 is 30 degrees meaning one angle is 1*30 = 30 and the second is 2*30=60 - > the correct answer is "a"
