Question

Which of the following possibilities will form a triangle?

Side = 16 cm, side = 8 cm, side = 7 cm

Side = 16 cm, side = 9 cm, side = 7 cm

Side = 17 cm, side = 12 cm, side = 7 cm

Side = 17 cm, side = 11 cm, side = 5 cm

Answer 1

any side cannot be equal or greater than the sum of the other 2 sides

Answer 2

yeahh

Answer 3

for example the first choice cannot be a triangle because 18 is greater than 7 + 8

Answer 4

* 16 not 18

Answer 5

which one do you think it is?

Answer 6

find the longest side in each choices and see if its less than the sum of the other 2. If it is then you have a triangle.

Answer 7

maybe a or c

Answer 8

Answer 9

Its c because 17 < 12 + 7
