[PR]

Solution.        

In \trianglePQR

\therefore   \angleP + \angleQ +\angleR = 180°                   (angle sum property)

\angleP = 70° and \angleR = 30°                      (Given)

70° + \angleQ + 30° = 180°

\angleQ = 80°

\therefore Greatest angle is \angleQ and we know that side opposite to greatest angle will be the longest.

Therefore, PR is the longest side
