Let's observe the length of the following sides and let's write in which cases it is possible to draw a triangle
(2.7 cm, 6.1 cm and 8.8 cm)
Let
First side, = 2.7cm,
Second Side, = 6.1cm
Third Side, = 8.8cm
We know that,
The Triangle Inequality Theorem,
So, we have a = 2.7cm, b = 6.1cm and c = 8.8cm
Now, we have to check that these given sides satisfy the triangle inequality or not.
2.7 + 6.1 = 8.8 ≯ 8.8
2.7 + 8.8 = 11.5 > 6.1
6.1 + 8.8 = 14.9 > 2.7
No, through the given lengths we can’t draw a triangle.
