Question

Which set of numbers does not create a triangle?

80 cm, 25 cm, 1 m

5 m, 12 m, 8 m

110 ft, 12 yd, 150 ft

7 yd, 13 yd, 19 yd

Answer 1

A + C > B
B+ C > A
A+ B > C

Answer 2

so its this one 5 m, 12 m, 8 m

Answer 3

Nope try again. Fill in the numbers

Answer 4

80 cm, 25 cm, 1 m the numbers look werid but it gotta be this one

Answer 5

i just calculated all of them. I believe 2 of them could be your answer. the first choice and the third choice. are you sure those were the answers you were given?

Answer 6

yes im sure

Answer 7

thats weird. I guess theres a 50-50 shot for you. Im so sorry. Its either the first one or the third one

Answer 8

ok Thanks do you know about this one
For a triangle with sides a = 418 and b = 222, side c must be less than what length? Type the numeric answer only in the box below.

Answer 9

the answer is 196. You subtract 418 and 22 and get 196 and if you add them it makes 640, which is the highest they can go.

Answer 10

so how do i write it

Answer 11

do you know the formula for this? @diva15

Answer 12

wait. no write 640. i missread the question

Answer 13

its 640 because thats the highest it can be, so it must be less than that

Answer 14

the way to answer this is two find out if any of the two sides of the triangle are grater than the 3rd.
@Harrypotterfan101 you had the correct formula at the top but you are explaining this wrong

Answer 15

so i will write it like this <640

Answer 16

if two sides of the triangle are not grater then the 3rd then it is NOT a triangle

Answer 17

just write 640 because it asks for numerical answers. And @LivForMusic so then it would be the third choice, right?

Answer 18

so 640 is the answer

Answer 19

@Harrypotterfan101 yes the answer is the 3rd choice

Answer 20

where is 640 coming from?

Answer 21

so the 3rd choice is 640 ?

Answer 22

oh no 640 is for the second question @diva15 asked

Answer 23

oh ok. next time @diva15 post another question seperate

Answer 24

*separate

Answer 25

ok so whats the answer for the 2nd question

Answer 26

640 is the answer for the second question.

Answer 27

the answer for the second question btw is not 640

Answer 28

how so? you have to add the two values and subtract them to create a range

Answer 29

because you can not have the two sides added equal the 3rd or above because then it is not a triangle.

Answer 30

No that is just the range for C. It can be anything in between those two values. C is the hypotenuse which is the biggest side

Answer 31

The third side is between 196 and 640. Side C must be less than 640.

Answer 32

oh ok sorry i read it inccorectly the answer for the second question IS 640.

Answer 33

*incorrectly

Answer 34

so @Harrypotterfan101 you are correct
