Complete the statement. Since angle B is the largest angle, is the side.

postnew [5]

Answer:

∠B is the largest interior angle of the triangle, and AC is the largest side.

Step-by-step explanation:

Relationship of sides to interior angles in a triangle-

The shortest side of a triangle is always opposite to the smallest interior angle.
The longest side of a triangle is always opposite to the largest interior angle.

So converse of the second property is the side opposite to the largest interior angle is always the largest side.

As ∠B is the largest interior angle of the triangle, so its opposite side which is AC will be the largest side.
