Question

Hayden is creating triangles using plastic straws cut to various lengths for the sides. Which set of straw lengths can he use to create a scalene triangle?

Answer 1

The answer is below

Explanation:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are isosceles, acute, scalene, obtuse, right and equilateral triangle.

A scalene triangle is a triangle in which all the three sides of the triangle have different lengths hence, all the angles of the triangle also have different lengths.

Therefore the set of straw lengths that can be used a scalene triangle must have different lengths, for example:

5, 7 , 8
