Question

List the angles of the triangle in order from largest to smallest.

a) ∠a, ∠b, ∠c
b) ∠c, ∠b, ∠a
c) ∠b, ∠c, ∠a
d) ∠a, ∠c, ∠b

Answer 1

Without specific values assigned to the angles ∠a, ∠b, and ∠c, listing them from largest to smallest is not possible. We must know which angles correspond to the given values to determine the correct order.

This correct answer is a)

Step-by-step explanation:

To list the angles of a triangle in order from largest to smallest, we first need to identify which angles correspond to values (a) 11.8°, 12.5°, 14.1°, 19.2°, (b) 24.2°, 25.7°, 29.1°, 41.0°, and others provided in the different options.

However, without knowing which angles (∠a, ∠b, ∠c) correspond to which values, we cannot determine the order from largest to smallest. Yet, we can recall the principle that if 'a is more than b, and b is more than c, then a is more than c'.

Therefore, based on given angles, we would expect to find the largest angle mentioned first and the smallest mentioned last in the correct answer choice.
