Question

Read the statements shown below.

If a polygon has three sides, it is a triangle.
If an angle of a triangle measures 90°, it is a right triangle.
Beth constructed a triangle in the geometry class.

Based on the given statements, which is a valid argument?

1.It can be concluded that Beth drew a triangle with an angle measure of 45°.

2.It cannot be concluded that Beth drew a right triangle.

3.It can be concluded that Beth drew a scalene triangle.

4.It cannot be concluded that Beth drew a polygon.

Answer 1

2 is probably the most reasonable argument from that given information.

It doesnt specify Beth's triangle's angle measures, whether or not it is scalene, and it can be concluded that a polygon was drawn if she drew a triangle from the 1st statement.

Answer 2

Okayy thank you
