Question

Is it possible to have a triangle with 5cm, 8cm, 10cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, it is possible

Step-by-step explanation:

because if you take any two sides, they are greater than the third side

5 + 8 > 10

5 + 10 > 8

10 + 8 > 5

Therefore, the triangle with sides 5cm, 8cm, 10 cm is possible..

More to know...

if any of the above three conditions were false, then the triangle would not be possible. example..

Consider a triangle with sides 2 cm, 1 cm, 4 cm

we get,

2 + 4 > 1

4 + 1 > 2

but,

2 + 1 < 4

As the third condition don't satisfy the condition being that

' Third side is always smaller than the sum of two other sides '

The triangle with sides 2cm, 1 cm, 4 cm is not possible

Answer 2

Hi Buddy! Hope this helps you!

Answer:

No, it is not possible to have a triangle with 5cm, 8cm, 10cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, let's see if 5+8>10

                              5+8=13

2)Second, let's see if 5+10> 8

                              5+10=15

3)Third, see if 8+10>5

                              8+10=18

∴ The triangle cannot be constructed.
