Question
Is it possible to draw a triangle, the lengths of whose sides are given below?
2cm, 3cm, 4cm
2cm, 3cm, 4cm
✓
Answer
Clearly, 2 + 3 > 4
3 + 4 > 2
2 + 4 > 3
Thus, the sum of any two sides is greater than the third side.
Hence, it is possible to draw a triangle having sides 2cm, 3cm and 4cm.
3 + 4 > 2
2 + 4 > 3
Thus, the sum of any two sides is greater than the third side.
Hence, it is possible to draw a triangle having sides 2cm, 3cm and 4cm.
