consider triangle wxy. which statement about the angles is true? angle w is greater than angle y. angle y is the largest angle. angle x is smaller than angle w. angle w is the smallest angle.

consider triangle wxy. which statement about the angles is true? angle w is greater than angle y. angle y is the largest angle. angle x is smaller than angle w. angle w is the smallest angle.

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall angle - side relationship in a triangle

In a triangle, the larger the side opposite an angle, the larger the angle.

Step2: Identify side - angle relationships in (\triangle WXY)

The sides of (\triangle WXY) are (WX = 9), (XY=10), and (WY = 14). The angle opposite (WX) is (\angle Y), the angle opposite (XY) is (\angle W), and the angle opposite (WY) is (\angle X). Since (WY>XY > WX), then (\angle X>\angle W>\angle Y).

Answer:

Angle (W) is greater than angle (Y) (First option is correct)
