Answer 1

To determine if a combination of angle measures can form a triangle, the sum of the angles must equal 180°.

Let's analyze each option:

1. **40°, 55°, and 95°**
- \(40 + 55 + 95 = 190°\) (not a triangle)

2. **45°, 65°, and 75°**
- \(45 + 65 + 75 = 185°\) (not a triangle)

3. **25°, 65°, and 90°**
- \(25 + 65 + 90 = 180°\) (forms a triangle)

4. **30°, 75°, and 85°**
- \(30 + 75 + 85 = 190°\) (not a triangle)

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