The angle with the smallest measure is opposite the shortest side. Similarly, the angle with the largest measure is opposite the longest side.
No, this statement is not correct. The side opposite the largest angle is the longest side of a triangle only if the triangle is obtuse. In acute triangles, the side opposite the largest angle is the longest side, and in right triangles, the side opposite the right angle (90 degrees) is the longest side.
True. In any triangle, the longest side is always opposite the largest angle; the shortest side is always opposite the shortest angle; and the middle length side is always opposite the middle size angle. In an isosceles triangle, there is no middle length side; and the two sides of equal length are opposite the angles of equal size. In an equilateral triangle, all sides are the same length, as are all the angles.
