Question

Henry has three metal rods. The three metal rods measure 7 feet, 9 feet, and 2 feet.

Answer 1

Answer:

No, Henry cannot form a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of the lengths of two sides must be greater than the third side.

7 (first side) + 2 (second side) = 9

The sum of these two sides is not greater than the third side (9).

So, therefore, Henry cannot form a triangle.
