Try to construct a triangle with 5cm, 8cm and 1cm. Is it possible or not? Why? Give your justification?
Answers
Dear student,
Answer: Impossible to construct Δ with given sides.
Reason:
To construct a triangle, normally these conditions are given
→ we have at least one angle and two sides
→ Two angles and one side
For constructing triangle only with three sides ,check the condition as follows:
Step 1: Take any three length.
Step 2: Check the sum of any two sides, if it is greater than third side ,then
construction of that Δ is possible,otherwise not.
Given length1: AB: 5 cm,Let us assume triangle ΔABC
Length 2:BC = 8 cm
length 3:AC = 1 cm
So,now check to add any two sides
AB+BC = 5+8 = 13 >AC
AB+AC = 5+1 = 6 < BC ∴ CONDITION FAILS
BC+AC = 8+1 =9 >AB
so,impossible to construct that triangle.
hope it helps you.
Answer:
Hi friends here your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
As the sum (6cm)of two sides 5cm and 1cm is less than third side . Is is not possible to construct a triangle with given measurements. because the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third angle. so it is not possible to construct by this measurements . by brainly
