Question

Find the range for the measurement of the third side of a triangle, x, given the measures of the two sides: 5m and 11m.


6m > x > 16m

5m > x > 11m

6m x 16m

7m > x > 17m

Answer 1

The sum of 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side, thats what you'll have to use. Also, 'x' > 0, since it's a length.
Now, x + 5 > 11, and x + 11 > 5 (this will be true for any positive x), and 11 + 5 >x.
This should give you the answer.

Answer 2

is the answer b

Answer 3

Focus on solving and understanding the inequations, you'll get the answer.....

Answer 4

Answer 5

(1) x > 0
(2) x + 5 > 11. Take 5 to the other side.
(3) x + 11 > 5. This is true for all positive x.
(4) 11 + 5 (=16) > x.
The common solutions of x give you the answer.
