You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi,
.
*Note: Given the measures of two sides of a triangle, the measure of the third side is between their difference (in absolute value) and their sum, exclusive of each.
.
182 + 295 = 477
.
295 - 182 = 113
113 > x < 477 would be the range of values for the unknown side
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side.
So
Use the given values to solve so so this is an invalid answer, since a cannot be negative
So
