A triangle can be correctly drawn if you know: A. the measure of its three angles B. the measure of its base and height C. the measure of one of its angles and one of its sides D. the measure of its three sides

Ask your self this question, "Could I draw two DIFFERENT triangles with this true of them?" For example, with the first one, I would think of drawing this: |dw:1338218435299:dw| They both have the same 3 angles, but they are different triangles.

So, you can definitely rule out A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And C wouldn't work either...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Neither would D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would it be B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, the problem with B is that base and height just means the measure of one side and the perpendicular distance from that side (called height), so let's say we know base = 10 height = 5 |dw:1338223186562:dw|
