Triangle inequality

The triangle inequality theorem states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side.

Let's analyze each group of side lengths:

• 7,6,10

Note that:

7+6 > 10

7+10 > 6

6+10 > 7

Since all the conditions are met, this group can create a triangle

• Now for 4,2,7

Testing each sum:

4+2 > 7

This inequality is false since 6 is not greater than 7

Thus, this group cannot create a triangle

• Now for 3,4,5

Testing each sum:

3 + 4 > 5

3 + 5 > 4

4 + 5 > 3

Since all the conditions are met, this group can create a triangle

• Finally, for 3,3,3

Testing each sum:

3 + 3 > 3

This happens three times. They form in fact an equilateral triangle

Thus, the only group that cannot create a triangle is 4,2,7

Which of the following represents the coordinates of point A?
KiRa [710]
The coordinates of A will be (2P +M)/3
= (2(16, 14) +(1, 4))/3 = (33/3, 32/3) = (11, 32/3)

The appropriate choice is
  (C) (11, 32/3)

_____
You will note that the coordinates of A are the weighted average of the coordinates of the end points. The weighting is the reverse of the ratio of the line segments. That is, the point adjacent to the shortest segment gets the highest weighting. (This is typical of the solution to "mixture" problems.)
