Gemma wants to draw a triangle with side lengths of 4 inches, 12 inches, and 17 inches. Which statement is true? This triangle e

xists because the sum of any two side lengths is greater than the length of the third side. This triangle exists because the sum of 4 and 12 is less than 17. This triangle does not exist because the sum of any two side lengths is greater than the length of the third side. This triangle does not exist because the sum of 4 and 12 is less than 17.

<span>Answer:This triangle does not exist because the sum of 4 and 12 is less than 17.

Since 4+12 isnt greater than 17, the triangle doesn't exist</span>

If you have a triangle with sides a, b and c, then:

a+b>c,\\a+c>b,\\b+c>a.

In your case let a=4 in, b=12 in annd c=17 in. Check these three inequalities:

1. 4+12=16 is less than 17 - inequality a+b>c doesn't hold.

2. 4+17>12 - inequality a+c>b holds.

3. 12+17>4 - inequality b+c>a holds.

Since only two from three inequalities are true, then the triangle doesn't exist.

Answer: correct choice is D - This triangle does not exist because the sum of 4 and 12 is less than 17.

Reika [66]
<span>As far as i know it is related to Gauss.
Write the sequences forward and backward first.

1 +2 +3 +.....+1002
1002+1001+1000+.....+1
--------------------------------------... Adding them
1003+1003+......(1002 times)
=1002x1003
But this contains the series twice.
So, the sum is = 1002x1003/2=501x1003=502503. answer</span>

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Therefore  the hypotenuse of the triangle is 15 cm and other two sides of the triangle are 9 cm and 12 cm and one angle of the triangle is 90°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: According to this theorem the result obtained by  squaring the value of the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the values other two sides of the triangle.

Hypotenuse = h

Altitude = l

Base = b

l²+b²=h²

Here 6²=36

9²=81

12²=144

15²=225

From the above it is clear that

81+144=225

⇒9²+12²=15²

Therefore  the hypotenuse of the triangle is 15 cm and other two sides of the triangle are 9 cm and 12 cm and one angle of the triangle is 90°.
