Answers with Explanation:

1. Why did American businesses have a difficult time combating the hazards of industrial diseases?

Little published information existed on workplace poisoning.

The question is probably related to the industrial sickness in the 1900s, such as those in Illinois. The state of Illinois had a high mortality rate because many  people died from industrial poisoning, such as lead poisoning. This was mainly common among children who were exposed to paints, cribs and toys containing lead. It was also the most common occupational disease. Since little information existed on such kind of poisoning, especially in the workplace, it was very hard for the American businesses to combat industrial diseases.

2. What research technique did Alice Hamilton use in studying industrial poisoning?  

"Shoe leather epidemiology"- adopting different methods of investigation.

Alice Hamilton was an American doctor and researcher who played a vital role in determining the causes of industrial diseases (such as industrial poisoning). In order to do this, she had to find out the association of the diseases from different activities such as the production of rubber or explosives and the like. She relied on the "shoe leather epidemiology" which assisted her in knowing more about occupational epidemiology.

3. One result of the Triangle fire was that it

acted as a catalyst on social reform

The Triangle fire occurred during the Era of Industrialization. This was the period wherein mass production was used in order to provide more goods at a lower cost. Companies resorted to ruthless strategies in order to gain more profit while maintaining their competitiveness. This often resulted into strikes among labor workers.

The Triangle fire was a fire which occurred in one factory. This killed many workers thus, leading to an outcry of the inhumane and unsafe working conditions of the laborers. This then acted as a catalyst on social reform. As a result, investigations of the other factories were conducted and safety standards were improved.
