We know that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.
Also, the difference of two sides of a triangle is smaller than the third side.
∴ 10 units + 7 units = 17 units
∴ 10 units - 7 units = 3 units
From the above calculations we can conclude that the third side of the triangle is less than 17 units and more than 3 units.
