Answers
Answer:
The sides of a triangle have lengths (in cm) 10, 6.5 & a ,where a is whole number. The minimum value that a can take is ?????
Sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side of the triangle.
Here,
First side=10cm
Second side=6.5cm
Third side=a cm
According to this property,
third side <first side +second side
=>a<(10+6.5)cm
=>a<16.5cm
So,here we can take the minimum of value of a =16.5+0.01=16.51cm
Third side is 16.51 cm
