OA. by showing the two sides with lengths 4 and 3 can always meet to
form a vertex
B. by showing the two sides with lengths 4 and 3 will only meet when
the angle between them is large
OC. by showing the two sides with lengths 4 and 3 can never meet to
form a vertex
D. by showing the two sides with lengths 4 and 3 will only meet when
they lie on the third side
SUBMIT

Answer 1

The diagram illustrates that the two sides with lengths 4 and 3 can never meet to form a vertex, therefore the correct answer is C.
