Okay.. So I did this problem, but I think there is something wrong with the answer choices... In a triangle XYZ, angle x = 47 and angle y = 54. Which of the following must be true? A. XY = XZ B. YZ > XY C. XZ < XY D. XY + XZ < 2* YZ E. 2*XY > XZ + YZ Angle is Z is 79 degrees, making XY the longest segment. How am I suppose to pick between C and E?
