Question

Order the side lengths

Answer 1

Explanation:

first lets find angle J in triangle IJK

for angle J

47 + 51 + angle J =180 degree (sum of interior angle of a triangle )

98 + angle J =180

angle J =180 - 98

angle J =82 degree

Now lets find angle J in triangle JKL

for angle J

57 + 63 + angle J =180 degree (being sum of interior angle of the triangle)

120 + angle J =180

angle J = 180 - 120

angle J =60 degree

now lets place the angle from samllest to largest

angle I = 41 degree

angle K = 51 degree

angle K of JKL triangle = 57 degree

angle J of JKL triangle = 60 degree

angle L =63 degree

angle J of IJK triangle = 80 degree

Side opposite to the smallest angle is smallest in sides and side opposite to the longest angle is largest in side.So,

side opposite to angle I is JK

side opposite to angle K is IJ

side opposite to angle K of JKL triangle is JL.

side opposite to angle J of JKL triangle is LK.

side opposite to angle L is JK.

side opposite to angle J of IJK triangle is IK.

therefore required answer is

JK , IJ , JL , LK , JK , IK

Answer 2

Explanation:

First fill in the missing angles of each triangle:

angle IJK = 180-47-51 = 82°

angle KJL = 180 - 63 - 57 = 60°

Within EACH triangle, the side length is proportional to the opposite angle.

Therefore for triangle IJK,

JK < JL < IK

and for triangle JKL

JL < KL <JK

so combining (chaining) the two inequalities,

JL < LK <JK < JL < IK
