Answer:

Question 9: True

Question 10: False

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the last side.

To test if the three lengths create a triangle you would have to test the three combinations if the two numbers are greater than the last number.

<h3>Question 9:</h3>

<u>The three lengths 6, 6, 5 create a triangle.</u>

First check the first two numbers.

  • 6 + 6 = 12
  • 12 > 5, so this is valid.

Next check the first and last number.

  • 6 + 5 = 11
  • 11 > 6, this is also valid.

Last check the second and last number.

  • 6 + 5 = 11
  • 11 > 6, all three combinations are valid for creating a triangle.

The answer for question 9 is TRUE.

<h3>Question 10:</h3>

<u>The three lengths 7, 2, 5 create a triangle.</u>

Check the first two numbers.

  • 7 + 2 = 9
  • 9 > 5, this is valid.

Check the first and last number.

  • 7 + 5 = 12
  • 12 > 2, this is also valid.

Finally, check the second and last number.

  • 2 + 5 = 7
  • 7 = 7, this is NOT valid because it MUST be greater than. Therefore these three lengths are not able to create a triangle.

The answer for question 10 is FALSE.

Answer:

Question 9: False

Question 10: False

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side is always greater than the other two sides.

<u>Question 9</u>

a = 6, b = 6, c = 5

Since the third side is the smallest, it would not create a triangle.

<u>Question 10</u>

a = 7, b = 2, c = 5

Since the third side is the smallest, it would not create a triangle.

The answer is A and D

In answer choice A the fractions are 3/6 and 4/6. In the original equation in fractions are 1/2 and 2/3. The equivalent fraction to 1/2 is 3/6 because 1x3=3 and 2x3=6, therefore 3/6 is equivalent. The equivalent fraction to 2/3 is 4/6 because 2x2=4 and 3x3=6, therefore 4/6 is equivalent.


In answer choice D the fractions are 9/18 and 12/18. In the original equation in fractions are 1/2 and 2/3. The equivalent fraction to 1/2 is 9/18 because 1x9=9 and 2x9=18, therefore 9/18 is equivalent. The equivalent fraction to 2/3 is 12/18 because 2x6=12 and 3x6=18, therefore 12/18 is equivalent.

Hope this helps :D
