Multiple Choice
Triangle DEF contains two congruent acute angles. The sum of the measures of the two congruent acute angles is greater than 90 degrees. Anna concludes that the triangle must be an acute triangle. Which best describes her conclusion?
She is correct. A triangle having at least one acute angle is an acute triangle.
She is correct. The remaining angle of the triangle measures less than 90 degrees.
She is incorrect. The angles measure greater than 90 degrees so the triangle is obtuse.
She is incorrect. The third angle in a triangle with two congruent acute angles is a right angle.

Multiple Choice
Gemma wants to draw a triangle with side lengths of 4 inches, 12 inches, and 17 inches. Which statement is true?
This triangle exists because the sum of any two side lengths is greater than the length of the third side.
This triangle exists because the sum of 4 and 12 is less than 17.
This triangle does not exist because the sum of any two side lengths is greater than the length of the third side
This triangle does not exist because the sum of 4 and 12 is less than 17.

Multiple Choice
Which triangle correctly shows that the side opposite the larger angle is the larger side?
17
Multiple Choice
Pat is at a right angle from Chris and Jaime, and Chris is at a 48° angle from Pat and Jaime. Which statements are true? Check all that apply.
Jaime is at the smallest angle from the two friends.
Pat is at an angle of 90° to Chris and Jaime.
The path between Jaime and Chris is the shortest because it is adjacent to the smallest angles.
If they meet at Pat’s entrance, then Chris will have walked a shorter distance than Jaime.
If they meet at Jaime’s entrance, then Pat will have walked a longer distance than Chris.
