Given three side lengths, how many triangles can be formed?

Mathematics

Given three side lengths, for example, a, b and c, you can form the triangle when

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

If this property holds, then one triangle you can form. Each next triangle with the same sides lengths will be congruent to the first triangle by SSS postulate.

SSS postulate says: If the three sides of a triangle are congruent to the three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Answer: 1 triangle, correct option is A.

We know that

In a triangle, the combined lengths of any two sides must always be greater than the length of the third side. (Triangle Inequality Theorem)

<span>If all three side lengths are given and the combined length of two sides is greater than the length of the third side.</span>

then 

 one unique triangle can be made

Put these in order starting from the smallest 3/4. 0.72 4/5 0.799 9/10
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

0.72, 3/4, 0.799, 4/5, 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by converting all of these into decimal form to make this easier.

3/4=0.75, 4/5=0.8, and 9/10=0.9.

Now, it's clear that the correct order is:

0.72, 0.75, 0.799, 0.8, 0.9

Converting the fractions back, you get:

0.72, 3/4, 0.799, 4/5, 9/10

Hope this helps!

Carla rode her bike to the park she travels at 5 miles per hour for 15 minutes how far did Carla ride her bike
Margaret [11]
In this question there is a simple trick that needs to be handled first. Baring that simple trick the problem is very easy. The first thing that needs to be done after noting down all the details from the given question is to covert 1 hour to 60 minutes.
Time taken by Carla to travel 5 miles = 1 hour
                                                           = ( 1 * 60 ) minutes
                                                           = 60 minutes
Then
In 60 minutes the distance covered by Carla = 5 miles.
NOw
In 15 minutes the distance traveled by Carla = (5/60) * 15 miles
                                                                       = 5/4 miles
                                                                       = 1.25 miles
So Carla will travel a distance of 1.25 miles in 15 minutes.

Write the equation in standard form y+2=3/5(x + 5)
KiRa [710]
If by standard form, you mean ax+by= c, here is how to solve.

To write the equation in standard form, move each variable term to the left side of the equation and simplify.

y+2=3/5(x + 5)
y+2= (3/5*x) + (3/5*5)
y+2= 3/5x + (3*5)/5
y+2= 3/5x +15/5
y+2= 3/5x + 3
subtract 3/5x by both sides
-3/5x+y+2= 3
subtract both sides by 2
-3/5x+y=1
multiply by 5 to eliminate fraction
-3x + 5y= 5

ANSWER: -3x + 5y= 5

Hope this helps! :)
