Question

In ΔABC, if ∠A = 40° and ∠B = 60°. Determine the longest and shortest sides of the triangle.

Answer 1

In the triangle ABC it is given that

We have to find the longest and shortest side.

Here

Now is the largest angle of the triangle.

So the side in front of the largest angle will be the longest side.

Hence will be the longest

Since is the shortest angle so that side in front of it will be the shortest.

And is shortest side

Hence Is longest and is shortest.
