You can put this solution on YOUR website!
GE = y, EH = y-1, GH = 11\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If this is a triangle: any two sides added together must exceed the measure of the third side (that's a property of triangles).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28GE+%2B+EH%29+%3E+GH\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28y%2By-1%29%3E11\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282y-1%29%3E11\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282y%29%3E12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3E6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If this is a line segment: the parts add up to the whole.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28GE+%2B+EH%29=GH\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28y%2By-1%29=11\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282y-1%29=11\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282y%29=12\"
