Unit four triangles less than three triangle inequality theorem quiz five questions determine the length of the third side of a triangle from the choices provided if the first two side measure 10 and 12 would the answer be 22 or 30 or 15 or 24

Answer 1

The correct answer is 22.

According to the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the length of the third side of a triangle must be less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides. In this case, 10 + 12 = 22, so the length of the third side cannot be 30. It must be less than 22.
