do you choose C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i want to go with c

OpenStudy (triciaal):

The Triangle Inequality Theorem says: Any side of a triangle must be shorter than the other two sides added together. If it was longer, the other two sides coudn't meet! so I guess it's not C based on the theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it's B!

OpenStudy (triciaal):

for sure the largest side is opposite the largest angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right ? @triciaal

Directrix (directrix):

So, why not B as well as C ? @anybody

Directrix (directrix):

I did not know a person with name "anybody" existed here. lol

OpenStudy (triciaal):

my final answer is C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B was the right answer

Directrix (directrix):

To say that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side is the same as saying that one side of a triangle is less than the sum of the other two. Just as to say 5 >4 is the same as saying 4<5. That is why I think B is a viable answer. C is viable as well.

Directrix (directrix):

What's wrong with C?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

yes B is correct I read the theorem again

Directrix (directrix):

C is correct as well, don't you think, @triciaal

my sister cousin help me out with this question we talked on skype i showed the answer to her and she said its B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean question

Directrix (directrix):

Then, why are you posting the question here?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

sure about c but this is the Inequality Theorem I just looked up maybe the key word is Inequality

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because she answered after you guys

Directrix (directrix):

Sister Cousin should have said that the answers are B and C. Whoever created this question messed up, in my opinion. Not a math person.

Directrix (directrix):

@Adam96 Skype up the sister cousin and ask about option C. See if she agrees. We will wait with bated breath.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea it can be

Directrix (directrix):

So be it. Time to move on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

She said B and C looks correct answers but she choose to go with B

Directrix (directrix):

Try entering both options and see what happens.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i selected the B it said its correct

OpenStudy (triciaal):

B is correct because the theorem has to do with the lengths only C is talking about the length and the angle which is true but not the theorem

OpenStudy (triciaal):

the question asks about the theorem not plain just which of these are correct
