MCQ
In $\triangle\text{ABC},\ \angle\text{A} = 50^\circ,\ \angle\text{B} = 60^\circ.$ Find the longest side of the triangle?
  • A
    $BC$
  • $AB$
  • C
    Cannot be determined
  • D
    $CA$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$AB$
By angle sum property, we have,
$\angle\text{A} + \angle\text{B} + \angle\text{C} = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 50^\circ + 60^\circ + \angle\text{C} = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\ \angle\text{C} = 180^\circ - (50^\circ+ 60^\circ) = 70^\circ$
Therefore, $\angle\text{C}$ is the largest angle in the triangle and the side opposite to it i.e. $AB$ is the longest side.
