Question

Determine if the following side lengths could form a triangle. Prove your answer with an inequality 6,18,14

Answer 1

For any triple of side measures a, b, c. We use the following inequality:

`a+b>c`

Therefore:

a = 6

b = 14

c = 18

`\begin{gathered} 6+14>18 \\ 20>18 \end{gathered}`

Thus, you can form a triangle.

Answer: Yes. The inequality is

`6+14>18`
