To determine the length of the third side of the triangle, we can use 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.
Let's call the length of the third side x. According to the triangle inequality theorem,
10 + 7 > x
17 > x
Therefore, the length of the third side must be less than 17 mm.
Two sides of a triangle are 10 mm and 7 mm.determine the length of the third side ?
