Given:

The three lengths in the options.

To find:

Which three lengths could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle?

Solution:

If the sum of two smaller sides is greater than the largest side, then the three sides can form a triangle otherwise the triangle is not possible.

In option A, the three sides are 4 cm, 8 cm, 13 cm. Here, the largest side is 13 cm.

Sum of two smaller sides is:

4+8=12

4+8

So, the triangle is not possible.

In option B, the three sides are 13 cm, 11 cm, 23 cm. Here, the largest side is 23 cm.

Sum of two smaller sides is:

13+11=24

13+11>23

So, the triangle is possible.

In option C, the three sides are 5 cm, 18 cm, 12 cm. Here, the largest side is 18 cm.

Sum of two smaller sides is:

5+12=17

5+12

So, the triangle is not possible.

In option D, the three sides are 25 cm, 8 cm, 16 cm. Here, the largest side is 25 cm.

Sum of two smaller sides is:

8+16=24

8+16

So, the triangle is not possible.

Therefore, the correct option is B. The three lengths 13 cm, 11 cm, 23 cm could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

The product of two consecutive positive integers is 29 more than their sum. Find the integers
Rina8888 [55]
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5    then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4  This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6    then: (x+1)=6+1=7    This solution is right.

Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.
