Question

A triangle has sides with lengths 15, 23, and x. What is the range of possible values of x?

Answer 1

8 < x < 38

Explanation:

given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is in the range

difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides , that is

23 - 15 < x < 23 + 15 , then

8 < x < 38
