To check if distances can be a triangle add the smaller two distances together. If the sum is larger (not equal to) than the longest distance then it is a possible side. For example, 2,2,4 or 1,2,5cannot be a triangle, 2,3, 4 can be a triangle because 2+3 is greater than 4.
38% of 21,515,714 is 8175971.32 which can be rounded to 8,175,971.

Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras' theorem for the smallest one :


= 52
Pythagoras' theorem for the middle one :
=
+ 
Pythagoras' theorem for the biggest one :


Using the formula before (for
) it becomes :



16 + 8a = 52 + 36
16+8a = 88
8a = 88-16
8a = 72
a = 9
Verifying :



= 117
The biggest one :



True
15 because it’s 3 times the actual amount
