Question

(c) problem 16: (first taught in lesson 49) in △rst, st > rs and rt < rs. which is the largest angle of the triangle? after you enter your answer press go.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the side - length relationships

Given \(ST>RS\) and \(RT < RS\), we can order the sides as \(ST>RS>RT\).

Step2: Use the triangle side - angle relationship

In a triangle, the larger side is opposite the larger angle.
Since \(ST\) is the largest side, the angle opposite \(ST\) (which is \(\angle R\)) is the largest angle.

Answer:

\(\angle R\)
