Answer is C. 8, 3, 6
To answer this, you must know the Triangle Inequality Theorem.
The two shortest sides when added together, must be greater than the longest side.
A. 2 + 4= 6 which can't work since it equals the longest side of 6
B. 4 +2=6 The sum would be less than 8, which doesn't work
C. 6 +3 = 9 the sum is greater than 8, which makes it a triangle
D. 3 +8 = 11 11 is less than 12
Picturing the tent helps, but we can actually solve this question using simple algebra and no knowledge of triangles.
The key is this function:
(b/h) = 2/√3
We want to get h by itself. First, multiply both sides by h:
b = h(2/√3) Now multiply both sides by the reciprical, (√3/2)
(√3/2) b = h
Therefore, the answer is C) h= b(√3/2)
