Question

in a triangle, the measure of the angle opposite to the longest side is: a.) greater than 60° b.) measure of 50° c.) greater than 90° d.) none of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

the angle opposite to the longest side is greater than 90°

Answer 2

Answer:

The measure of the angle opposite to the longest side is greater than 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equilateral triangle, all sides are equal and all angles are equal to 60°.

In case of a right angled triangle, the longest side is the hypotenuse which is opposite to 90°.

In case of an acute angled triangle the angle opposite to the longest side will be 90°<angle<60°.

In case if an obtuse angled triangle the angle opposite to the longest side will be angle>90°.

So to generalize, the measure of the angle opposite to the longest side is always greater than 60°.

So the correct answer is option (a) greater than 60°
