Answer: B: 41, C: 68, D: 71.

Step-by-step explanation: A triangle's angles have to add up to 180 degrees for it to be considered a triangle. If you were to add up 71, 41, and 68, then it would equal 180 degrees. This means that out of all the other measurements, these are the three possible angle measures that can be used to make a triangle.

(I figured this out by taking 3 random sides from the list there and adding them up to see if they equal 180.)
