Answer: Cal's answer must be incorrect because the sum of angles is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

According to Cal, the three angles of the triangle has magnitude 65, 45 and 60 respectively.

Sum of angles = 65+45+60

i.e. Sum of angles = 170 which is not equal to 180

Hence, Cal's answer must be incorrect because the sum of angles is incorrect.
