Name the greatest and the smallest sides in the following triangles:
ΔABC, ∠ = 56°, ∠B = 64° and ∠C = 60°.

Solution
In the given ΔABC the greatest angle is ∠B and
the opposite side to the ∠B is AC.
Hence, the greatest side is AC.
The smallest angle in the ΔABC is ∠A and the
opposite side to the ∠A is BC.
Hence, the smallest side is BC.
