Answer 2

In a triangle the smallest angel is always going to be opposite the smallest side, this becomes quite clear with a quick diagram. It's exaggerated just to make it clear.



So with your question the smallest side is XY which would make the angle opposite that the smallest.

Answer 3

XY?

Answer 4

Answer 5

Sorry, in your question the shortest side is side XY right? Therefore the angle opposite that is the smallest angle, which would be angle Z

Answer 6

So, it's B?

Answer 7

Yes, angle Z is the smallest, so option B

Answer 8
