Inequalities in 1 Triangle

[b]Students:[/b][br][br]Use this applet to help complete the investigative questions below. Answers must be in [b]complete sentences.[/b][br][br]
1. In triangle ABC, is the longest side [i]adjacent to[/i] or [i]opposite[/i] the largest angle?
2. In triangle ABC, is the shortest side [i]adjacent to[/i] or [i]opposite[/i] the smallest angle?
3. Using the slider on the left, move point [i]C[/i] to change the shape and size the triangle. Answer questions 1 and 2 for this new triangle. (answer here)
4. Make a conjecture about how the positions of sides of different lengths in a triangle are related to the position of the angles of different measures. (if you can't remember what "conjecture" means, look it up online).
