Determined linked of the third side of a triangle from the choicest provided if the first two sides measure ten and twelve

1 answer

To determine the length of the third side of a triangle from the choices provided, we can apply the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

In this case, we have two sides with lengths 10 and 12.

To find the possible lengths of the third side, we can use the inequality:

12 - 10 < Third Side < 12 + 10

Simplifying the inequality, we get:

2 < Third Side < 22

So, the length of the third side must be greater than 2 and less than 22.
