Question

If 2 sides of a triangle are 6 and 16, what is the range of the possible lengths of the third side?

Answer 1

between 10 and 22

Explanation:

A side of a triangle must measure between the difference of the lengths of the other two sides and the sum of the lengths of the other two sides.

Difference: 16 - 6 = 10

Sum: 6 + 16 = 22

Answer: between 10 and 22
