## anonymous one year ago Which of the following possibilities will form a triangle? Side = 10 cm, side = 5 cm, side = 6 cm Side = 10 cm, side = 6 cm, side = 3 cm Side = 11 cm, side = 5 cm, side = 6 cm Side = 11 cm, side = 5 cm, side = 5 cm

sum of two sides should be greater than the 3rd side $\huge\rm a+b>c$$\huge\rm a+c>b$$\huge\rm c+b>a$

ues

what?

@jcoury

6. anonymous

i meant yes

7. Nnesha

a, b , c can be any side doesn't matter use that formula to get an answer

8. anonymous

i dont get the question

9. Nnesha

substitute a b, c for given side of triangles

10. anonymous

i get it :) wow its easy!

11. Nnesha

so which one is correct ?

12. anonymous

they are all greater

13. Nnesha

let's do last one where a =11 b =5 c= 6 $\huge\rm 11+5>6$ is it right ?

@geny55 sorry my computer glitched again

15. anonymous

oh its A! I see it :)

16. Nnesha

now try 3rd equation where $\rm c+b >a$ $5+6>11$ 11 is greater than 11 ?

17. anonymous

no

18. Nnesha

so D is not correct

19. anonymous

right
