The greatest whole possible whole number length of the unknown side is 9 inches.

<h3>How to identify if a triangle is acute?</h3>

Let us have:

H = biggest side of the triangle

And let we get  A and B as rest of the two sides.

Then we get:

If

A^2 + B^2 < C^2

then the triangle is acute

Two sides of an acute triangle measure as 5 inches and 8 inches

The length of the longest side is unknown.

We have to find the length of the unknown side

WE know that the longest side of any triangle is a hypotenuse

For an acute triangle we know:

A^2 + B^2 < C^2

Here in this sum,

a = 5 inches

b = 8 inches

c = ?

Substituting we get,

A^2 + B^2 < C^2\\\\5^2 + 8^2 < C^2\\\\25 + 64= C^2

c < 9

Hence, The greatest whole possible whole number length of the unknown side is 9 inches.
