Answer:
We know that the sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third.
Therefore, third side has to be less than the sum of the two sides. The third side is thus, less than 14 + 11 = 25 cm.
The side cannot be less than the difference of the two sides. Thus, the third side has to be more than 14 - 11 = 3 cm.
So, the length of the third side could be any length greater than 3 cm and less than 25 cm.

Answer:
The length of the third side must be in between
3 and 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Points to remember:
Inequalities of triangle:
- The sum of any lengths of two sides is greater than the length of the third side.
- The difference of any lengths of two sides is less than the length of the third side.
- Given lengths are 11 cm and 14cm
- their sum is 25
- their difference is 3
- so, the length of the third side is in between 3 and 25
- let the length of the third side c then 3<c<25
