Consider Theorem 5.10 about Angle-Side Relationships in Triangles.
Angles: ∠H, ∠J, ∠K
Sides: JK, KH, HJ
On the diagram, we are given the measures of all the angles in â–³ HJK.
We can see that ∠H is the smallest angle, followed by ∠J and then ∠K.

Angle-Side Relationships in Triangles |
|
If one angle of a triangle has a greater measure than another angle, then the side opposite the greater angle is longer than the side opposite the lesser angle. |
Now, considering this theorem, we will look for the corresponding opposite sides. cc Angle & Opposite Side [0.5em] ∠H & JK [0.5em] ∠J & KH [0.5em] ∠K & HJ Therefore, we can list the sides in order from smallest to largest. JK < KH < HJ
