Question

The segment shown below could form a triangle. 6, 5, 8

AC 6 , CB 5, BA 8

Answer 1

Yes

Explanation:

In order to form a triangle sum of the lengths of any two sides must always be greater than the length of the third side.

Here,

6 + 5 = 11 > 8

5 + 8 = 13 > 6

8 + 6 = 14 > 5

Given side lengths satisfy above condition. Hence the given segment can form a triangle.
