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

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

i just took the test and i got it right Hope this helps

Answer 2

The rule is for a triangle to be made, the longest side MUST be shorter than the other two sides combined.

The only option that satisfies this rule is the third one:

Side 17, side 12, and side 9

Because 9+12>17

I hope this Helps!
