True or False?
A triangle can have side length of 3, 2, and 4.
O True
False

Answer 1

True

Explanation:

Use the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle has to be greater than the length of the third side.

Test out the theorem by adding together the side lengths:

3 + 2 > 4

4 + 2 > 3

4 + 3 > 2

Since all of these are greater than the other side length, this statement is true.

Answer 2

Answer: True

True because not all sides have to be equal in any shape except a square.
