Question

Triangle ABC has angle measures of 45°, 58°, and 77º. Match each length with its correct angle. mzA= Use the red numbers and DRAG it to the appropriate angles of the triangle. Then input your answers in the blanks. mzB = C 45* nZC= Angles 58* Side Lengths 6 5 77* A 7 B

Answer 1

In a triangle, we can relate the angles with their opposite side: the wider angle will have the largest side as opposite side.

This can be applied to the narrower angle: will have the shortest sides as opposite.

In this case, the largest side is AB, so the wider angle is at vertex C and will have a measure of 77 degrees.

In the same way, the shortest side is BC, so the narrower angle is at vertex A and will have a measure of 45 degrees.

Then, vertex B will have a measure of 58 degrees.
