Answer:

QR is the shortest side

Step-by-step explanation:

∡S is opposite to side QR

∡Q is opposite to side SR

∡R is opposite to side QS

Law of sines states:

QR/sin(∡S) = SR/sin(∡Q) = QS/sin(∡R)

Given that: ∡S < ∡Q < ∡R; then,  sin(∡S) < sin(∡Q) < sin(∡R)

In order to satisfy the law of the sines, side QR must be shorter than side SR, and side SR must be shorter than side QS.
