Question 456270: Two sides of a triangle are 8 and 13. Which of the following could be the measurement of the third side?
Given a triangle with sides of 7, 9 and x, which of the following describes the range of values for the third side of the triangle? Answer by katealdridge(100) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Here's how you find the third side.
Take your two numbers, 8 and 13. Add them: 8+13=21. Then subtract them: 13-8=5. The third side must be between 5 and 21 but not including those numbers.
Same thing for the next one.
