Answer:

Infinitely many triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the lengths of two sides are 8 inches and 10 inches.

Let's assume third side = x inches.

Using the Triangle Inequalities given as follows:-

1. a+b > c,

2. b+c > a,

3. c+a > b.

Using the lengths given in the problem, we can write:-

1. x+8 > 10 ⇔ x > 10-8 ⇔ x > 2.

2. x+10 > 8 ⇔ x > 8-10 ⇔ x > -2.

3. 8+10 > x ⇔ x < 18.

So, the solution set is 2 < x < 18. It means third side can take any value in interval (2, 18).

Hence, there are infinitely many triangles.

Determine whether the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle. write yes or no. explain. 9.2, 14.5, 17.1
Sergio039 [100]
If the triangle has a angle of 90°, you can solved this exercise by applying the Pythagorean Theorem, which is:

 h²=a²+b²
 h=√(a²+b²)

 h: It is the hypotenuse (The opposite side of the right angle and the longest side of the triangle).

 a and b: They are the legs (The sides that form the right angle).

 The result of h=√(a²+b²), should be 17.1 (The longest side given in the problem). So, let's substitute the values of the legs into the Pythagorean equation:

 h=√(a²+b²)
 h=√((9.2)²+(14.5)²)
 h=17.1

 Therefore, the answer is:

 Yes, the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.
