Question

2 sides of a triangle measure 34 inches and 52 inches. What is the possible third side "x"? A.) 34 < x < 52 B.) 0 < x &lt; 18 C.) 18 < x < 86 D.) 0 < x < 86

Answer 1

Answer:

C.) 18 < x < 86

Step-by-step explanation:

triangle property: sum of any 2 sides is larger than the third side

if x <= 18       18 + 34 no larger than 54

if x >= 86       34 + 52 no larger than 86
