Question

Is it possible to draw a triangle with a 50° angle, a 60° angle, and an 80° angle? Why or why not?

Choose the correct answer and explanation.
A) yes; The sum of the angle measures is 180°, and the angle measures of a triangle sum to 180°.
B) no; The sum of the angle measures is less than 180“, so the endpoints of the sides cannot meet.
C) no; The sum of the angle measures is greater than 180°, so the endpoints of the sides cannot meet.
D) yes; The sum of the angle measures is greater than 180°, and the angle measures of a triangle sum to at least 180°
