\n" ); document.write( "In any triangle, the sum of the lengths of the two shorter sides must be greater than the length of the longest side.

\n" ); document.write( "If the side with length 12cm is the longest, then the missing side must have length x where 9 plus x is greater than 12.

\n" ); document.write( "If the missing side is the longest side, then its length x must be such that 9 plus 12 is greater than x.

\n" ); document.write( "Now you answer the question.
