Question 835629: Hello. I need help on a question. I need to Write a compound inequality that must be satisfied by the length of the side labeled x. Use the fact that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. The two sides' lengths are 6 and 4 while the third one is X.

By the triangle inequality, we know that X is less than 10. Also, X must be greater than 2 (since 2 + 4 = 6, when it should be >6). So we have 2 < X < 10.
