Is it passible to have a triangle with the following sides? (a) 3m, 6cm, 7cm, (b) 6cm, 3cm,2cm.​

Answer»

Answer:

(a) Yes

(b) No

Step-by-step explanation:

The possibility of a triangle to be formed depends on the the length of sides.

To form a triangle, the sum of the length of TWO sides must be GREATER than the length of third side.

Now, moving to the question.

(a)3CM, 6cm, 7cm

  • 3+6 > 7
  • 3+7 > 6
  • 6+7 > 3

Clealry, in allt the three cases, it satisfies the required condition.

Therefore, triangle will be formed.

(b) 6cm, 3cm, 2cm

  • 6+3 > 2
  • 6+2 > 3
  • 2+3 < 6

In this , two cases are satisfying the required CONDITON but the third case is not.

Therefore, triangle will not be formed.

Hence, triangle will be formed only in (a).
