Maria is enclosing a triangular pen with wire fencing. Two sides of the pen measure 14 feet and 8 feet in length. Which inequality describes any possible length, in feet, of the third side of the pen?
----------
For a triangle, the 3rd side must be less than the sum of the other 2 sides, and greater than the difference between the other 2 sides.
----
In feet, miles, light-years. doesn't matter.
