Answer:

  • No

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use triangle inequality theorem, which states</u>

<em>"The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side."</em>

<u>The sum of two sides compared to the remaining side:</u>

  • 7 + 11 = 18 = 18 - not ok
  • 7 + 18 = 25 > 11 - ok
  • 11 + 18 = 29 > 7 - ok

The sum of two sides is equal to the third side. This makes it impossible to make a triangle. Therefore the answer is no.

MariettaO [177]

Answer: First Option : Sₙ= n/2(a₁ + aₙ)

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth partial sum of an arithmetic sequence or the sum of the first n terms of the arithmetic series can be defined as the sum of a finite number of term in an arithmetic sequence.

It is calculated using the formula:

Sₙ= n/2(a₁ + aₙ)

Where :

a₁ = First term

aₙ = last term

n = number of terms
