Answer:

15 < Third side < 79

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a triangle with two sides with measure a and b, the range for the third side will be:

a - b < Third Side < a + b

So, if we have sides of 47 and 32 units, the range of possible measures for the third side is:

47 - 32 < Third Side < 47 + 32

15 < Third side < 79

Therefore, the possible measures for the third side are values between 15 and 79.
