Question

N ΔCAB, if the measure of segment AB is 8 units and the measure of segment segment AC is 5 units, which of the following could be the measure of segment segment CB?
triangle CAB, point E is on segment AC between points A and C and point D is on segment BC between points B and C, creating segment ED

12 units
13 units
14 units

Answer 1

Answer:

∴Third side = 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔCAB, the measure of segment AB is 8 units and the measure of segment AC is 5 units.

The sum of two sides of a triangle always grater than third side.

Therefore,

(5+8)=13 units

third side<13

∴Third side = 12 units
