True, because of the Triangle Inequality Theorem.


To test if you could construct a triangle, make sure the following inequalities are true.


9 + 4 > 11

9 + 11 > 4

4 + 11 > 9.

These 3 lines form a Scalene Triangle, which is a triangle with 3 sides of 3 different lengths. According to the Triangle Inequality Theorem, a triangle results, because, the longest sides (11) is less than the sum of the other two sides ( 9 + 4) = 13. 9 + 11 > 4, 4 + 11 > 9, 4 + 9 > 11



Therefore, your answer would be, TRUE, because, of the Triangle Inequality Theorem.




Hope that helps!!!!
