Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Show all your work for short answer questions.
1. In any triangle, what is the relationship between the longest side and the largest angle?
2. If two angles in a triangle are equal, what can you say about the sides opposite those angles?
3. In triangle ABC, if angle A = 80°, angle B = 50°, and angle C = 50°, which side is the shortest?
Side AB
Side BC
Side AC
All sides are equal
4. If a triangle has side lengths of 5 cm, 7 cm, and 10 cm, which angle is the largest?
Angle A (opposite 10 cm)
Angle B (opposite 7 cm)
Angle C (opposite 5 cm)
Cannot be determined
5. In triangle XYZ, angle X = 45°, angle Y = 60°, and angle Z = 75°. Order the sides from shortest to longest.
Side XY
Side YZ
Side XZ
6. In triangle PQR, side PQ = 12 cm, side QR = 8 cm, and side PR = 15 cm. Order the angles from smallest to largest.
