Answer: 32, 25, and 13 are possible side lengths.

Explanation:

The lengths of any two sides of a triangle must sum up to more than the length of the third side.

15 + 27 = 42

42 = 42

The sum has to be MORE than the third side.

15 + 27 = 42

42 > 11

15 + 11 = 26

26 < 27

The sum of two sides can't be LESS than the third side.

15 + 27 = 42

42 > 32

15 + 32 = 47

47 > 27

27 + 32 = 59

59 > 15

Possible Side Length!

15 + 27 = 42

42 < 45

Can't be less

15 + 27 = 42

42 > 25

15 + 25 = 40

40 > 27

27 + 25 = 52

52 > 15

Possible Side Length!

15 + 27 = 42

42 > 13

15 + 13 = 28

28 > 27

27 + 13 = 40

40 > 15

Possible Side Length!
