2 math problems , Could anyone please help ??

Here are two math problems that I'm stuck on could anyone please help??





1. Quadrilateral A B C D, segment A C forms two triagnles. Angle B is 82, angle B A C is 71, angle A C D is 92, and angle D is 51


The longest side of triangle ABC is








A)Segment AB


B)Segment BC


C)Segment AC


D)Segment AD





2. Quadrilateral A B C D, segment A C forms two triagnles. Angle B is 82, angle B A C is 71, angle A C D is 92, and angle D is 51


The shortest side of triangle ACD is





A)Segment AD


B)Segment CD


C)Segment AC


D)Segment AB

1. longest side of triangle ABC is segment AC.


The longest side of a triangle is opposite the greatest angle.





2. shortest side of triangle ACD segment DC


The shortest side if a triangle is opposite the smallest angle.
Reply:1. if bac is 71 then bca is 27 because 27+82+71=180 and that is how many degrees is in a triangle


and cad is 39 because angle b is 82- c is 119 d is 51 added gets 250 360-252 = 108 108-71= 37 so angle a is 108


longest side is ac because it is across from b ( the biggest angle) 82





2. angle b is 82


angle d is 51


bac is 71


180-71-82=27


angle bca is 27


acd is 92


180-92-51=37


cad is 37


the shortest side is dc because it is across from the smallest angle, cad, 37
