write an enaquality that expresses the reason the lengths 5 feet , 10 feet and 20 feet could not make a triangle. explain how the inequality demonstrates that fact

Respuesta :

ayah1
For any triangle, the 2 shortest sides added together have to be longer than the longest sides.

short side (10) + short side (5) needs to be greater than (>) longest side (20)

10 + 5 > 20

15 > 20

This inequality is incorrect, so the lengths cannot make a triangle.

Hope this helps :)
