Can the sides of a triangle have lengths 2.5, 2.3, and 0.2?
1 answer
No, the sides of a triangle must satisfy the triangle inequality, which states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. In this case, 2.5 + 2.3 is only 4.8, which is less than 0.2. Therefore, these values cannot be the sides of a triangle.
