Angles opposite to shorter sides are shorter. Then, the shortest angle is opposed to the shortest side.

Since the shortest side has a length 2.8 and is opposed to the angle A, then the shortes angle is A.

The next shortest side is that opposite to B, which has a length of 3.4.

And finally, the largest side has a length of 4.7 and it's opposite to the angle C.

Therefore, the list of angles from largest to smallest, is:


\angle C,\angle B,\angle A
