The final answer would depend in the type of triangle we are analyzing, however here are the possible outcomes:
1.) If it was a right triangle, 36.5 would be the smaller angle.
2.) It cannot be an equilateral triangle since all angles would be 60°.
3.) In a isosceles triangle, 36.5° would be the smaller, since the others would be 72°.
4.) In an scalene triangle it cannot be determined unless we had 2 angles since in that kind of triangle all angles can be different.
5.) In an acute triangle, 36.5° would be the smaller angle.
6.) In an obtuse triangle it cannot be determined unless we had 2 angles, since it can have highly acute angles.

Does the answer help you?
You could actually find the compositions and thus have something to compare. You haven't shared the list of possible answer choices.
(f+g)(x) = 5x - 3 + x + 4 = 6x + 1
(f-g)(x) = 5x - 3 - x - 4 = 4x - 7
(f*g)(x) = (5x-3)((x+4) = 5x^2 + 20x - 3x - 12 = 5x^2 + 17x - 12
There are also the quotient (f/g)(x) and the compositions f(g(x)) and g(f(x)).
WRite them out.
Then you could arbitrarily select x values, such as 2, 10, etc., subst. them into each composition and determine which output is greatest.
Answer:
2x^2+4x-16
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic can be written as
f(x) = a(x-z1)(x-z2) where z1 and z2 are the roots
f(x) = a (x-2)(x- -4)
a is the leading coefficient
f(x) = 2(x-2)(x+4)
= 2(x^2 -2x+4x-8)
= 2(x^2 +2x-8)
= 2x^2 +4x-16
