To find the possible lengths of the third side of a triangle when the lengths of the other two sides are given, we can use the triangle inequality theorem. This theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. Given: - Length of side 1 (a) = 6 cm - Length of side 2 (b) = 8 cm Let the length of the third side be denoted as \( c \). ...
