The lengths of sides of a triangle have to satisfy the triangle inequality, which states that the sum of the two shorter sides must exceed the length of the third side.

Here 9+8=17 (not greater), so these segments do not form a triangle.

pentagon [3]

<em><u>Because heritability accounts for variations among people, not in specific individuals which means that the cause is not 50% environmental or 50% genetic but rather based on variations among individuals</u></em>
