Question 698524: Is it possible to draw triangle with sides 6cms,5cms and 8cms

Any triangle must have the property that its largest side cannot be larger than the sum of its smaller sides. For the problem, the largest side is 8, and the smaller sides are 5 and 6.

5 + 6 = 11 > 8. Since the sum of the two smaller sides is greater than the largest side, it is possible to draw a triangle with these lengths.
