write two theorem of inequality of triangle
Answers
Answer:
Hence, let us check if the sum of two sides is greater than the third side. Therefore, the sides of the triangle do not satisfy the inequality theorem.
...
Q. 3: If the two sides of a triangle are 2 and 7. Find all the possible lengths of the third side.
Answer:
Consider a ∆ABC as shown below, with a, b and c as the side lengths.
Triangle Inequality Theorem
The triangle inequality theorem states that:
a < b + c,
b < a + c,
c < a + b
In any triangle, the shortest distance from any vertex to the opposite side is the Perpendicular. In figure below, XP is the shortest line segment from vertex X to side YZ.
Triangle Inequality Theorem Proof
Let us prove the theorem now for a triangle ABC.
Triangle Inequality Theorem Derivation - 1
Triangle ABC
To Prove: |BC|< |AB| + |AC|
Construction: Consider a ∆ABC. Extend the side AC to a point D such that AD = AB as shown in the fig. below.
