Two sides of a triangle are 4 cm and 7 cm. What can be the length of its third side to make the triangle possible?
Answers
the length of third side must be bigger than difference of the given sides and must be smaller than their sum
7cm-4cm=3cm
7cm+4cm=11cm
hence, length of triangle must be bigger than 3cm and smaller than 11cm

Answer:
As we know ,the sum of the lengths of any two sides in a triangle is always greater than the length of the third side in the triangle.
⇒ The difference of the lengths of any two sides in a triangle is always lesser than the length of the third side in the triangle.
⇒ The difference between 4cm and 7cm is
3cm and their sum is 11cm.
⇒ To ensure that the above mentioned rule is not violated, the possible length of the third side must be greater than 3cm and lesser than 11cm.
hence length of third side is between 3 cm and 11 cm.
