Mathematics

rewona [7]3 years ago
3 0

According to the Triangle inequality theorem, this does not work

For a triangle to be valid, the length of any two sides added together must by greater than the length than the third side.


In this example, we can see that the side with length 1 added to the side with length 2 is equal to 3inches.

3 inches is less that 4inches (the length of the 3rd side). So that triangle does not work.

--------------------------------------------------------

Answer

This triangle does not work, because the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is  <u>NOT</u>  greater than the length of the third side.

the area of a triangle is 124 square units. what would it's new area be if its base was half as long and its height was three ti
Montano1993 [528]
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have that the formula for calculate the area of a triangle is:

 A=bh/2

 Where A is the area of the triangle, b is the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle.

 bh/2=124
 bh=124x2
 bh=248

 2. The problem asks for the new area of the triangle <span>if its base was half as long and its height was three times as long. Then, you have:

 Base=b/2
 Height=3h

 3. Therefore, when you substitute this into the formula for calculate the area of a triangle, you obtain:

 A'=bh/2

 (A' is the new area)

 A'=(b/2)(3)/2
 A'=3bh/4

 4. When you substitute bh=248 into </span>A'=3bh/4, you obtain:
<span>
 A'=186 units</span>²
<span>
 The answer is: </span>186 units²
