Question
The length of the three segments is given for constructing a triangle. Say whether a triangle with these sides can be drawn. Give the reason for your answer.
12 cm, 12 cm, 16 cm
Solution
12 cm, 12 cm, 16 cm
Here, 12 < 12 + 16 or 12 < 28
12 < 12 + 16 or 12 < 28
16 < 12 + 12 or 16 < 24
In any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of the triangle is always greater than the third side.
Therefore, the triangle is possible.
