The lengths of AB and BD can be determined by looking at the number line provided. AB is located at -4 and BD is located at -1. Therefore, AB has a length of 3 and BD has a length of 1.
According to the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.
Possible third side lengths could include BC and AD with lengths 4 and 3, respectively.
Therefore, BC and AD are the two possible answers that could be used as the third side of the triangle.
A
Negative 4
B
Negative 1
C
3
D
4
A trangle has no congruent sides. The lengths of two sides of the triangle are AB and BD. Use the number line above to determine the lengths of AB and BD. Then, use the Triangle Inequality Theorem to determine which two segments have lengths that could be used as the third side of the triangle. Select a response containing 2 possible answers
