The length of third side of triangle is 4 or 14.

According to the statement

we have given that the two sides of the triangle which are 5 and 9 and we have to find the length of the third side of triangle.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

If we had a triangle with sides a, b and c, then we can say

b-a < c < b+a

where b is larger than 'a'. This is the triangle inequality theorem

In this case, a = 5 and b = 9 so,

b-a < c < b+a

9-5 < c < 9+5

4 < c < 14

Telling us that c is some number between 4 and 14, not including either endpoint. If c is a whole number, then c could be any value from this set.

And

We see that the numbers 4 and 14 are in this set. The values 2 and 7 are not in the set.

So, The length of third side of triangle is 4 or 14.

SOMEONE HELP PLEASE!!!
Oliga [24]

Answer:

x = 2 1/3

y = 14 / (2 1/3) = 14 / (7/3) = 14*3/7 = 42/7 = 6

y = 6

x = 4 1/5

y = 14 / (4 1/5) = 14 / (21/5) = 14*5/21 = 70/21 = 3 7/21 = 3 1/3

y = 3 1/3

x = 7/6

y = 14 / (7/6) = 14*6 / 7 = 12

y = 12
