Any exterior angle of a triangle always equals the sum of the two interior opposite angles.
In a scalene triangle, each side has a different length and each angle has a different measure. The longest side is always opposite the largest angle, while the shortest side is opposite the smallest angle. Therefore, the statement that the longest side is opposite the angle with the smallest measure is incorrect; it should be the opposite.

The shortest side of a triangle is opposite to the smallest interior angle.
angle with smallest measure - apex
The angle with the smallest measure is opposite the shortest side. Similarly, the angle with the largest measure is opposite the longest side.
