Answer 1

To determine if a combination of angle measures can form a triangle, the sum of the angles must equal 180 degrees. Let's evaluate each option:

1. **25°, 65°, and 90°**:
- Sum: 25 + 65 + 90 = 180° (Valid triangle)

2. **30°, 75°, and 85°**:
- Sum: 30 + 75 + 85 = 190° (Not a valid triangle)

3. **40°, 55°, and 95°**:
- Sum: 40 + 55 + 95 = 190° (Not a valid triangle)

4. **45°, 65°, and 75°**:
- Sum: 45 + 65 + 75 = 185° (Not a valid triangle)

The only combination that can form a triangle is **25°, 65°, and 90°**.
