Question 1

In your own words, describe what it takes to form a triangle.

A  The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is less than the length of the third side.  

B  The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is equal to the length of the third side.  

C  The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.  

G.9-12.5.D

A No because the sum of the lengths of the two shorter sides is equal to the length of the third​ side, and this contradicts the triangle inequality theorem. 

B No because the sum of the lengths of the two shorter sides is less than the length of the third​ side, and this contradicts the triangle inequality theorem.
