2 sides of a triangle have a length of 6 and 6 what is the possibility for the 3rd side

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Whenever you're given two sides of a triangle, say a and b, and are asked for the possible values for the length of the third side, it should always fall within this OPEN interval: \[\Large \left(|a-b| \ , \ a+b\right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0<x<6 0<x<12 6<x<12 12<x<18

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

All right, think of it this way, then: \[\Large |a-b| < x < a+b\]
