Question

A triangle has sides of 5 and 6. Could the third side be 10? Why?

Answer 1

if the two smaller sides are greater than the larger side, then it is a triangle

Answer 2

5 + 6 > 10 ?

Answer 3

11>10

Answer 4

Rule:

let a,b,c be the sides of a triangle



if all of the following is true
`a+b > c`
`b+c > a`
`a+c > b`
then a triangle is possible. Otherwise, if one of the inequalities above is false, then a triangle can't be constructed
