Question

1. 7in. , 3in. , 10in.

Answer 1

i think you have to use the pythagorian theorem--i think it's false

Answer 2

7 + 3 only reaches the two ends of 10 in a straight line.
the sum of the two sides must be grater than the third side

Answer 3

If your triangle has two acute angles and one obtuse angle, those measurements will work.

Answer 4

The sum of two lengths must be greater than the third.
