Answer 1

are you sure

Answer 2

are you sure ?

Answer 3

you haven't answer my question ARE YOU SURE MAN

Answer 4

Side x equals 1 m

Answer 5

My apologies for the error.

Using the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the third side of the triangle should be less than the sum of the other two sides but greater than the difference between the other two sides.

So, in this case, the third side should be greater than |8 - 6| = 2 m and less than (8 + 6) = 14 m.

Therefore, the length of the third side of the triangle is 13 m.

Answer 6

I apologize for the mistake in my previous responses. I made an error in my calculations. Let's reevaluate the situation.

Using the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the length of the third side of the triangle should be less than the sum of the other two sides, but greater than their difference.

Given that the lengths of the two sides are 6 m and 8 m:

The length of the third side should be greater than |6 - 8| = 2 m and less than (6 + 8) = 14 m.

Therefore, the length of the third side of the triangle should be 13 m. Thank you for your patience.

Answer 7

Yes, I am sure now. Thank you for your patience. The length of the third side of the triangle should be 13 m based on the Triangle Inequality Theorem.
