Question

(1) A triangle having sides 9 cm, 6 cm, 15 cm. Say whether, triangle with these sides can be drawn. Give reason​

Answer 1

$\large{\underline{\underline{\textsf{\textbf{Answer :}}}}}$

Consider the numbers 9, 6, 15.

Clearly, 9 + 6 = 15.

Thus, the sum of two of these numbers is not greater than the third.

Hence, it is not possible to draw a triangle whose sides are 5 cm, 7 cm and 12 cm.
