Question

In a triangle ABC
angleA=angle B = 65°. The smallest side of the triangle ABC

Answer 1

GIVEN :

• IN ΔABC ∠A = ∠B = 65°

TO FIND :

1. SMALLEST SIDE OF TRIANGLE

SOLUTION :

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

=> 65° + 65° + ∠C = 180°

=> 130° + ∠C = 180° => ∠C = 50°

THE SIDE WHICH IS OPPOSITE TO THE ∠C BECOMES THE SMALLEST SIDE BECAUSE ∠C IS THE ANGLE WITH SMALLER MEASURE { ∵ FROM THEOREM }

THE SIDE OPPOSITE TO ∠C IS AB

∴ AB BECOMES THE SHORTEST SIDE OF THE TRIANGLE
