SOLUTION: Two angles have in the ratio 5:4. What is the longest side of the triangle?... I tried 5x+4x=180 and added 5x & 4x and got 9x=180 and divided 180/9 and got 20 then did 9(20) and g

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 5:4 can be written as 5x+4x but you're missing one angle unless you tell me that we're dealing with a right triangle.
