Answer:
The third important property of triangles is the triangle inequality rule, which states two measurements:
- The length of a side of a triangle is less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides.
- The length of a side of a triangle is greater than the difference of the lengths of the other two sides.
That means, the length of the third side of the triangle (let, C),
C<4+6 and, C>6-4 or 4-6

Answer:
2<x<10
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the length of two sides of a triangle are 4 cm and 6 cm.
Let the third side be x
Property of sides of triangle :
1. The length of a side of a triangle is less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides.
So, x < 4+6
x<10
2 .The length of a side of a triangle is greater than the difference of the lengths of the other two sides.
So, x>6-4
x>2
So, 2<x<10
Hence the length of the third side fall between 2 and 10 i.e. 2<x<10
