Mathematics

Paladinen [302]2 years ago

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle of sides a, b, c, we must have the following to be true to have a triangle.

a + b > c > |a - b|

b + c > a > |b - c|

a + c > b > |a - c|

if a=8, b=7, and c=9, we have that:

8 + 7 > 9 > 8 - 7, 15 > 9 > 1. TRUE.

7 + 9 > 8 > 9 - 7, 16 > 8 > 2. TRUE.

8 + 9 > 7 > 9 - 8, 17 > 7 > 1. TRUE.

Thus, a triangle can have sides of 8 cm, 7 cm, 9 cm.
