John travels between three different cities for his job: Honaker, Bristol, and Danville. The most direct route to each city is the one on the diagram.
Which route is the longest?
Answer explanation
First, find the missing angle: 180 - (52+63) = 65
52 degrees is the smallest angle, which is across from the shortest side of a triangle. The shortest route is between Danville and Bristol
65 degrees is the largest angle, which is across from the longest side of a triangle. The longest route is between Honaker and Bristol

Place the sides of triangle SIR in ascending order.
Answer explanation
ascending....shortest to longest
1st: find the missing angles in triangle SIR
180-108-25=47
Therefore, angle SIR is the smallest angle and side SR would be the shortest side
and angle IRS is the largest angle and side SI would be the longest side
