Question

The length of two sides of a triangle are 12cm and 8cm. Between what two measures the third side fall​

Answer 1

Answer:

a triangle  ABC has 3 sides and they have to satisfy the following.

 

    | a - b |  <  c < (a+b)  

length of a side must be less the sum of the other two and more than the difference between the other two.

Hence,  the third side,  has to be more than  (15-12) = 3 cm.   Also it has to be less than (15+12) = 27 cm.     It is in between  3 cm and 27 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Between 4cm and 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3rd side always falls between the sum and difference of the other two sides.

i.e: 12 + 8 = 20cm

     12 - 8  = 4cm

Therefore, the third side fallls between 4cm and 20cm.
