Question

You are asked to draw a triangle with side lengths of 3 inches, 4 inches, and 1 inch. How many triangles like this can you draw?

Answer 1

Given the sides 3 inches, 4 inches and 1 inch, the possible number of triangle that you can draw is only 1. Since a triangle has 3 sides, then you are given 3 sides, then the possibility is 1. To check whether the sides are legitimate to form a triangle, following a theorem, the sum of two sides must be greater than the third side.
