Answer 1

Okay, do you know how to find the third side?

Answer 2

For this, you have to find the range for the 3rd side, with inequalities.

Answer 3

All of the answers A through D are ranges of side x

Answer 4

Side one=A, Side Two=x Side three=C in what I'm about to say.

Answer 5

A and C has to be more than x

8+17 is equal to 25

Answer 8

Side X has to be greater than 17 minus 8.

Answer 9

17 minus 8 is 9

Answer 10

Answer 11

17-8=9 and 8+17=25
