Let the angles of the triangle be (a – d) °, a° and (a + d)°. 

We know that the sum of angles of triangle is 180°. 

⇒ a – d + a + a + d = 180° 

⇒ 3a = 180° 

∴ a = 60° 

Given greatest angle = 5 × least angle

\(\frac{Greatest\,angle}{least\,angle}\) = 5

⇒ 60 + d = 300 – 5d 

⇒ 6d = 240 

∴ d = 40 

Hence, angles are: 

⇒ (a – d) ° = 60° – 40° = 20° 

⇒ a° = 60° 

⇒ (a + d) ° = 60° + 40° = 100° 

∴ Angles of triangle in radians:
