Which type of triangle if any can be formed with sides measuring 8 inches, 8 inches, and 3 inches?
1 answer
A triangle cannot be formed with sides measuring 8 inches, 8 inches, and 3 inches, because in a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, the sum of the lengths of the two sides measuring 8 inches (16 inches) is not greater than the length of the third side measuring 3 inches.
