Given the dimensions of triangle ABC:

AB = 5

BC = 8

AC = 7

Let's determine the largest angle of triangle ABC.

We have a sketch of the triangle below:

In a triangle, the largest angle is the angle opposite the side with the largest side length.

From the given triangle ABC, the largest side is BC = 8.

The angle which is opposite BC is angle BAC.

Therefore, the largest angle of △ABC is ∠BAC
