Question

The triangle inequality Theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of the triangle is greater than the length of the third slide. The lengths of two sides of a triangle are 14ft and 27ft. Find the possible lengths of the third side

The third slide must have a length greater than __ft and less than _ft

Answer 1

12 < x < 42 or x | ( 12,42 ) ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

15 + 27 = 42; 27 − 15 = 12 . Therefore the third side must be

less than 42 ft ant greater that 12 ft. Therefore possible length

of third side of size x is 12 < x < 42 or x | ( 12,42 ) ft [Ans]
