Yes, I am sure. The Triangle Inequality Theorem 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, if two sides are 6 in and 8 in, the third side must be greater than the difference of 8 in - 6 in = 2 in and less than the sum of 6 in + 8 in = 14 in. Therefore, the third side could be 2 in.
