Question

If I have a triangle with the angles 50 and 60° what will all three sides be

Answer 1

Answer:  The sides from smallest to largest are  RT,  RS,  ST

================================================================

Explanation:

The missing angle is R = 70 degrees. This is because R+S+T = 180. We plug in S = 50 and T = 60 to get R = 70.

Once you know all three angles, you can determine which side is the shortest and which is the longest.

The 2 rules are these:

• The smallest side is always opposite the smallest angle.
• The largest side is always opposite the largest side.

This applies to triangles only.

Since R = 70 is the largest angle, this makes the opposite side ST as the longest side. Then we have S = 50 as the smallest angle, so RT is the shortest side as it's opposite this smallest angle.
