Solution

The correct option is A AB
As we know that the three angles of a triangle add up to $180^{\circ}$ ,
Also, the other two angles are given as,
$∠$ A = $45^{\circ}$ and $∠$ B = $65^{\circ}$
Therefore, $∠$ C = $180^{\circ}$ - $45^{\circ}$ - $65^{\circ}$ = $70^{\circ}$

Now,
$∠ C > ∠ B > ∠ A$
Hence, the side opposite to $∠$ A, i.e., BC is the smallest and the side opposite to $∠$ C, i.e., AB is the largest.
