Answer:

the third side must be greater than 6 but less than 16

Step-by-step explanation:

use triangle inequality theorem - 3 scenarios (one of which is discounted because it produces a negative and a side of a triangle cannot be negative)

5 + 11 > 3rd side (n)    n < 16

5 + n > 11       n > 6

11 + n > 5;   n > -6   discounted
