Question

Jackson said that he made a triangle that had side lengths of 6 units, 6 units and 14 units. Is this a possible triangle? Yes or no.

Answer 1

`\text{The triangle will not be possible}\\\\\text{This is because the two side lengths can't expand to 14 units}\\\\\text{In order for the triangle to work, the sum of the two short side lengths}\\\text{must be greater than the longer side}\\\\\text{However, 6+6 does not equal 14, it equals 12.}\\\\\text{This means that the triangle is NOT possible}`
