Answer: A The Triangle Fire was a tragedy that could have been prevented.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Fire was a tragedy that happened in the factory of Shirtwaist Company in New York City where there was.a.fore outbreak and about 145 employees of the company were killed.

The deaths could have been prevented because the company neglected safety measures such as having a good and reliable pump system, having readily available fire extinguishers. Also, what resulted in the lethal nature of the incident was because the doors within the building of the factory were locked.

The tragedy generated lots of attention and series of laws were been out in place in order to ensure that workers are safe at their workplace.
