Question

Three line segments have measures of 17 units, 11 units and 12 units. Will the 1 point

segments make a triangle? *
O No
O Yes

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

Because the formula for finding the hypotenuse of a triangle is a^2+b^2=c2.

so it will be 11^2 + 12^2 = c^2

Answer 2

No

Explanation:

The smaller amounts (11 and 12) have to add to be equal to or greater than the larger amount (17).

Hope it helps!
