Magic Triangle

A magic triangle is an arrangement of six positive or negative integers such that the sum of each side is the same. Solve the set of equations listed below. Then put the solutions to the equations into an empty magic triangle similar to the one pictured.

SET A

  1. x = 4 + 5 - (-6) - 4 + 9

  2. a = 20 + (-10) - 2 + 4 + (-2)

  3. 60 - (-2) - 22 + (-20) - 2 = n

  4. z = 5 + (-6) - 3

  5. -6 + 5 + 7 - 3 + 5 = h

  6. -6 + 7 - (-2) - 5 = y
