Answer:

yes

Explanation:

sum of any two sides> third side

difference of any two sides<third side

6+7=13>11

11+6=17>7

11+7=18>6

11-6=5<7

11-7=4<6

which is true .

Answer:

No, we cannot construct the triangle with a side length of 6, 7, and 11 units. It is because the sum of the two sides of the triangle must be greater than the hypotenuse of the triangle.
