Answer :-

  • The third side can be between 3 cm and 15 cm.

Given :-

  • The length of two sides of a triangle are 6 cm and 9 cm.

To find :-

  • The length of the third side.

Step-by-step explanation :-

  • The question has given us the length of the two sides of a triangle. We have to find the measures between which the third side can fall.

  • The two sides are 6 cm and 9 cm.

We know that :-

  • The sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than it's third side.

  • The difference of two sides of a triangle is smaller than it's third side.

Here,

  • Sum of the the sides = 6 cm + 9 cm = 15 cm.

  • Difference of the sides = 9 cm - 6 cm = 3 cm.

Conclusion :-

  • Therefore, the third side of the triangle must be greater than 3 cm and smaller than 15 cm.
