Math Problem Statement

order the letters from least to greatest

Order the letters from least to greatest based on the sides and angles of the triangle.

Solution

To solve the problem, I will assume you are asking to order the angles or side lengths of the triangle from least to greatest based on the diagram.

Given:

  • BC=13mBC = 13 \, \text{m}
  • BD=9mBD = 9 \, \text{m}
  • CD=8mCD = 8 \, \text{m}

Now, let's break it down:

In a triangle, the side opposite the largest angle is the longest, and the side opposite the smallest angle is the shortest.

We can use this concept to order the angles based on their opposite sides:

  • D\angle D is opposite side BC=13mBC = 13 \, \text{m}
  • B\angle B is opposite side CD=8mCD = 8 \, \text{m}
  • C\angle C is opposite side BD=9mBD = 9 \, \text{m}

Thus, ordering the angles by their side lengths:

  • B\angle B is the smallest (opposite 8 m)
  • C\angle C is medium (opposite 9 m)
  • D\angle D is the largest (opposite 13 m)

Order from least to greatest:

B<C<D\angle B < \angle C < \angle D
