The largest angle is opposite the largest side.

Using the cosine rule:

9.2² = 7.6² + 5.7² - 2 × 7.6 × 5.7 × cos β

→ cos β = (7.6² + 5.7² - 9.2²) / (2 × 7.6 × 5.7)

→ β = arccos((7.6² + 5.7² - 9.2²) / (2 × 7.6 × 5.7)) ≈ 86.29°

The smallest angle is opposite the shortest side.

The cosine rule can be used again, or using the sine rule:

sin γ / 5.7 = sin 86.29° / 9.2

→ sin γ = sin 86.29° × 5.7 / 9.2

→ γ = arcsin(sin 86.29° × 5.7 / 9.2) ≈ 38.19°

What are the angles from smallest to greatest in a triangle that has sides of 8.3cm 5.4cm and 7.1cm?

If you know all three sides of a triangle, you can calculate the angles using the law of cosines. If you only want to know which angle is the smallest, it is much simpler: The angle that is opposite to the smallest side is the smallest angle; the angle that is opposite to the largest side is the largest angle.


What shape has the smallest number of sides a regular polygon with obtuse angles can have?

An obtuse triangle has 3 sides.


What is the relation between the angles and sides of a triangle?

In one triangle, the largest side corresponds to the largest angle and vice versa.


What is the classification of the triangle?

A triangle can be classified according to its sides or the magnitude of its largest angle (two of the angles MUST be acute angles). All three sides equal: equilateral. Such a triangle must be equiangular, but that term is rarely used. Two equal angles, third one different (or two sides equal and third different): isosceles. All three angles different (all three sides different): scalene. Largest angle = 90 degrees: A right angled triangle. Largest angle obtuse: An obtuse angled triangle.


What is the smallest angle of a triangle with a ratio of 2 to 3 to 4?

It depends on whether the ratio refers to the angles of the triangle or the length of the sides.


Is it true that the largest angle of a triangle is between the two longest sides?

Not always because the largest angle of a right angle triangle is between its smallest sides which measures 90 degrees


Triangle with no equal sides angles or sides?

A triangle with no equal sides or angles will always be classified as 'scalene'.


How many sides and angles does a scalene triangle have?

Sides and Angles in a TriangleBy definition, a triangle has three sides. Since the number of sides and angles is equal, it would also have three angles.


All angles are right angles or a triangle has four sides?

False - and false ! Not ALL angles are right-angles - and a triangle has THREE sides !


How man angles does a triangle have?

A triangle has 3 angles and 3 sides, which is why it is called a TRIangle.


Does a triangle have 3 sides and 3 angles?

Yes a triangle consists of three sides and three angles.


Why does a triangles have three sides and three angles?

That is the definition of a triangle. If it did not have three sides it would not be a triangle. If it did not have three angles, it would not be a triangle.
