Question

can the numbers 12,34, and 37 form a triangle ?


Answer:

Yes you have an obtuse scalene triangle.


Explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

12 + 34 = 46

12 + 37 = 49

37 + 34 = 71

you have an obtuse scalene triangle, and it is in the picture.
