If the measure of <A of triangle ABC is 52°, m(<B) is 72°, and m(<C) is 56°, draw the triangle and list the sides in order from least to greatest measure.

For my list I have <B <C <A and I just drew a triangle and labeled the angles.

I'm not sure if that is right, though it seems to simple. I think I may be missing something.

You listed angles not sides.
Recall the largest side is opposite the largest angle.

How are you getting that 72 < 56 < 52? Or do you mean "<B" ("angle B") actually to mean "side B", and so forth?

Thank you.

so then its side CA, Side AB, and side CB?
From least to greatest!
Don’t you have it backward?
