NationalEnter the answer

Polona wants to draw three lines through one common point, as in the picture, so that the angles between them satisfy \(\beta = 2\alpha\) and \(\alpha = 3\gamma\). How many degrees must the angle \(\alpha\) measure?

α γ β
  1. A \(18\)
  2. B \(36\)
  3. C \(50\)
  4. D \(54\)
