So either A or C? Classify the triangle based on the side lengths 10, 12 and 23.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

so which is it? A or C?

Parth (parthkohli):

What is greater? \(10^2 + 12^2\) or \(23^2\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because B and D are out of the questions

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

first try and make sure it's a triangle first

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

is 10 + 12 greater than 23?

Parth (parthkohli):

Right.

Parth (parthkohli):

I mean - right is not the answer, but right is what lgba said ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

23 is greater than 10 + 12

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

but is 10 + 12 greater than 23?

Parth (parthkohli):

Answer in yes/no. @Trexy

Parth (parthkohli):

If \(a,b,c\) are random sides, then \(a + b > c\) in any given triangle.

Parth (parthkohli):

Do you see that getting fulfilled here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for Igba's question i will say no

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

so can you form a triangle?

Parth (parthkohli):

Let's say that \(a = 12\),\( b = 10\) and \(c = 23\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

NO

Parth (parthkohli):

Yep!

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

there you go

Parth (parthkohli):

That's it heh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much.. Much better.. i kinda know this one now.. @ParthKohli and @lgbasallote

Parth (parthkohli):
