Question

Which statement is correct about the sum of the lengths of two sides of the triangle?

It is half of the length of the third side.

It is one-fourth of the length of the third side.

It is greater than the length of the third side.

It is equal to the length of the third side.

Answer 1

no proportions where given in picture therefore options A and B are ruled out
think about this, if two sides added up to the third side, it couldn't possibly be a triangle any more

Answer 2

If i were to lay down both sides if would be about equivalent to the x-y side. is that what you are saying?

Answer 3

if you were to lay down both sides, along to the xy side then the two sides would add up to be greater.

Answer 4

Not by much, i see what you are saying. And that is how i get the answer to that. So simple...
