Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Wee know that the sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third.
The sides of a triangle are given as 2 cm, 9 cm, 6 cm
Suppose such a triangle is possible. Then the above property will be applicable. Let us check that.
2 + 9 = 11, which is greater than 6
9 + 6 = 15, which is greater than 2
2 + 6 = 8, which is less than 9
Thus, the triangle is not possible
