Which list shows the lengths of three line segments that could not form a triangle

6cm, 8cm, 10cm
5cm, 6cm, 7cm
4cm, 7cm, 13cm
3cm, 6cm, 6cm


Sagot :

4,7,13 and 3,6,6 are line segments that cannot form a triangle
[tex]To \ build \ a \ triangle \ with \ these \ segments, \ \\ \\ must \ be \ the \ condition:[/tex]

[tex]a+b >c \\ a+c>b \\ b+c>a[/tex]



[tex]a =6 \ cm, \ \ b= 8 \ cm, \ \ c =10 \ cm \\6 \ cm+8 \ cm>10 \ cm \\6 \ cm+10 \ cm>8 \ cm\\8 \ cm+10 \ cm>6 \ cm \\ \\14 \ cm >10 \ cm \\16 \ cm >8 \ cm \\18 \ cm > 6 \ cm \\ \\ are \ line \ segments \ that \ form \ a \ triangle[/tex]
