Question

Determine whether the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle write yes or no

2,2,6

Answer 1

NO.,the given measures can not be the lengths of the sides of a triangle

Explanation

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

so, Find the range for the measure of the third side of a triangle given the measures of two sides.

here given measures are 2,2,6

2+2 = 4 which is less than the third side 6

= 4 < 6

This not at all a triangle.

Hence, the given measures can not be the lengths of the sides of a triangle
