Question

Two sides of a triangle are

shown. Find the range of
values of the third side.
28, 38
< X

Answer 1

Explanation:

Using the triangle inequality theorem, the third side (X) must satisfy the inequality:

| 28 - 38 | < X < 28 + 38

Simplifying this expression, we get:

| -10 | < X < 66

which gives us:

10 < X < 66

Therefore, the range of values for the third side of the triangle is 10 < X < 66.
