Question

Could a triangle have interior angle
measures of 23°, 71°, and 96°? Explain.

Answer 1

No, because the total value of these angles exceeds 180 degrees :)

Answer 2

Answer:

No, it cannot.

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles have an interior angle sum of 180 degrees, no more, no less. The angles provided (23, 71, and 96 degrees) all add up to 190, making it impossible to be a triangle.
