In geometry, there is a theorem that states: The sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than that of the third
Let's try to plug in and find if any two sides added together will be greater than the third:
a) 2 cm
3+5=8 and 8>2 [acceptable]
2+3=5 but 5=5 [not acceptable]
2+8=10 and 10>5 [acceptable]
b) 3 cm
3+3=6, 6>5 [good]
3+5=8, 8>3 [good]
.....
etc
We found that the answer has to be 2cm, because if we were to add a side of 2cm with 3cm, it would equal to the third side and the theorem states that the sum has to be greater
Hope this helped :) If so, leave a rating :)
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter = side 1+side 2
12+18=30
7:5 = 21:15
explanation : to get 21, multiply 7 by 3. since 7 is multiplied by 3, then you multiply 5 by 3 too. and you get 15.
Answer:
120°
Step-by-step explanation:
A line must add up to 180°.
The sum of angles in a triangle also adds up to 180°.
Step 1: Find measures interior angles.
3x = 180
x = 60°
Step 2: Find measures of exterior angels.
x + 60 = 180
x = 120°
