By the Triangle inequality theorem, any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third.
\n" ); document.write( "So, the third side must be > 15 so as 6 plus 15 > 21.
\n" ); document.write( "The third side must be < 27, so the sum of 6 and 21 is greater than the third side.
\n" ); document.write( "21 < x < 27.
