contents This study reports \textit{CP} asymmetry measurements in charmless three-body decays of \textit{B} mesons, both using the Run II data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 $TeV$, collected by the LHCb detector from 2015 to 2018, with an integrated luminosity of 5.9 $fb^{-1}$. Significant \textit{CP} asymmetries are observed in $B^\pm \rightarrow π^\pm π^+ π^- $ and $B^\pm \rightarrow K^\pm K^+ K^- $ decays, while the previously observed asymmetry in $B^\pm \rightarrow π^\pm K^+ K^- $ decays is confirmed, and the \textit{CP} asymmetry of $B^\pm \rightarrow K^\pm π^+ π^- $ decays is found to be compatible with zero. Additionally, a new method is used to measure the \textit{CP} asymmetry in charmless $B \rightarrow PV$ decays, showing significant asymmetry in $B^\pm \rightarrow K^\pm π^+ π^- $ decays dominated by $ρ(770)$, representing the first observation of \textit{CP} violation in this process. Other decay channels show \textit{CP} asymmetries compatible with zero.
