in a scalene triangle the longest side is opposite the angle with the smallest measure TRUE or FALSE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

FALSE obviously. The longest side is opposite the largest angle.

my bad @genius is correct. False. The relationships between the angles inside a triangle will be identical to the relationships between the lengths of the sides opposite those angles. For example, take any scalene triangle with the corners A, B, and C. If ∠A is the widest angle, ∠B is the mid-range, and ∠C is the smallest, then B→C will be the longest side, A→C will be the mid-range side, and A→B will be the shortest side.
