The side lenghts of a triangle are 14,15, and x units
iragen [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1 < x < 29

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle inequality requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the longest side.

<u>When x and 14 are the shortest</u>:

  x + 14 > 15

  x > 1

<u>When 14 and 15 are the shortest</u>:

  14 +15 > x

  29 > x

Then the requirement for the length of x is ...

  1 < x < 29

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The length of the third side of a triangle can be between the difference and sum of the two given sides.
