A triangle has two sides of length 9 and 12.What is the largest possible whole number length for the third side

Geography
1 answer:
Archy [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is - 20.

Explanation:

According to the triangle inequality theorem states that the largest and smallest value of the third side of the triangle can be found with the other two sides. The lowest value would be more than the difference of the other two sides and the largest value would be less than the sum of the other two sides of the triangle.

In this case, the other two sides are - 9 and 12

suppose the third side is - x

Then according to the triangle inequality theorem, the largest value of x would be:

x< 12+9

x< 21

so the x would be less than the 21 which is - 20.

Why do mapmakers have to choose between showing the correct land shapes and distances on the earth?
Olin [163]

The mapmakers have to make this choice because of the shape of our planet and because there is still not a method as to how to have both the land shapes and distances to be precise at the same time.

The shape of the earth is the factor that is not allowing (at least for now) that we have both correct land shapes and precise distances on the maps of the Earth. Because the Earth has a rounded shape, as we move further away from the Equator, the shapes are deforming more and more, or rather they are stretching more and more which makes them appear much bigger than they actually are, thus giving us an unrealistic picture of the size of some of the places on our planet.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Organic and traditional farming are fundamentally different in that conventional farming depends on chemical intervention to combat pests and weeds and provide plant nutrition. Organic farming, on the other hand, produces balanced, abundant food by relying on natural concepts such as biodiversity and composting.
