It is given that the two sides of a triangle measure 8 cm and 15 cm. It means 3rd side must be less than 23. Case 2: Let 15 cm is the largest side. It means 3rd side must be greater than 7.

Answer:

There might be plenty of answers, one of them is: if two sides of a right triangle measure 8 cm and 15 cm, then hypotenuse = sqrt (8^2 + 15^2) = 17

Hope this helps!
