Name the greatest and the smallest sides in the following triangles:
ΔDEF, ∠D = 32°, ∠E = 56° and ∠F = 92°.

Solution
In the given ΔDEF the greatest angle is ∠F and
the opposite side to the ∠F is DE
Hence, the greatest side is DE.
The smallest angle in the ΔDEF is D and the opposite
side to the ∠D is EF.
Hence, the smallest side is EF.
