Answer:
It could be anywhere between 6 to 10 cm,
Depends on the Angle.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let (a) cm be the 3rd side of the △
Sum of two sides of △ is always greater than 3rd side
Hence there are 3 possibilities,
⇒6+(a) > 10
⇒10+(a) > 6
⇒10+6 > (a)
From above, we can conclude that
a>4, a>−4, a<16
As, length cannot be negative,
So, 4 < a > 16
