Question

Order the sides of the triangle from shortest to longest. (HINT: Draw a picture of the triangle first!) In ACDE mZC= 81° mZD = 66° mZE = 33°

Answer 1

we know that

In any triangle: The shortest side is always opposite the smallest interior angle. The longest side is always opposite the largest interior angle

to better understand the problem

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

Please wait a minute to draw the triangle

The longest side is ED (opposite the largest interior angle)

The shortest side is CD (opposite the smallest interior angle)

therefore

The ordered sides from shortest to longest are

CD- EC-ED
