Step-by-step explanation:
According to the property of Triangle Inequality,
The sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side
and
the difference of any two sides of a triangle is less than the third side.
So, using the above property we solve the sum as,
Let the length of the third side be x cm.
We know that sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side. Therefore, (12+15cm) = 27cm.
Also we know that the difference of any two sides of a triangle is less than the third side.
Therefore, ( 15-12cm ) = 3cm
We understand that the length of the third side should be more than 3cm and less than 27cm.
