Could you build a triangle from each of the 3 lengths?

Mathematics
1 answer:
lianna [129]2 years ago
7 0
To form a triangle the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side.
5, 5, 3 forms a triangle (isosceles)
8, 8, 8 forms a triangle (equilateral)
5, 6, 10 forms a triangle (obtuse angled scalene)

7, 8, 15 technically forms a triangle with an area of zero units. The vertices would be co-linear.
This will often be ignored as it has little practical use.

Fun fact. If you break a stick into 3 random lengths there is only a 25% chance they will be able to form a triangle.

x = y · 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x is divided by 4, we have to multiply each side by 4.

x-7=y · 4  To get x by itself, add 7 to each side to get x = y · 11
