Can a triangle have sides with the given​ lengths? Explain. ​2ft,7ft, 15ft

1 answer

No, a triangle cannot have sides with lengths 2ft, 7ft, and 15ft.

In order for a triangle to exist, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the remaining side.

However, in this case, 2ft + 7ft is equal to 9ft, which is less than 15ft.

Therefore, it is not possible to form a triangle with these side lengths.
