Answer:

9) AB, AC, BC or c, b, a

10) EG, (EF, FG) or f, (e, g)

Explanation:

Sides are in the same order as their opposite angles. Generally the angle has an upper-case letter for its name, and the opposite side has the same lower-case letter for its name.

__

9) angle C is 32°, opposite side c, which is also labeled AB

angle B is 68°, opposite side b, which is also labeled AC

angle A is 80°, opposite side a, which is also labeled BC

Shortest to longest, the sides are c, b, a.

__

10) angle F is 50°, opposite side f, which is also labeled EG

The remaining two angles are both 65°, so have no smallest/largest order. Likewise their opposite sides are the same length, so have no shortest/longest order.

angles E and G are opposite sides e and g, also labeled FG and EF, which are the same length

The shortest side is f; sides e and g are longer and are the same length.
