Question

the segments shown below could form a triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2 so the biggest number would be c and that would be 11 9^2=81 4^2=16 adding these together gets 97. 97=/=11^2 which is 121

Answer 2

Answer:

A. True.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given lengths of three segments. We are asked to determine whether the given segments could form a triangle or not.

Triangle inequality theorem states that sum of two sides of triangle must be greater than third side of the triangle.

Using triangle inequality theorem, we will get:

$9+4>11$

$13>11$ True

$9+11>4$

$20>4$ True

$4+11>9$

$15>9$ True

Since our given segments satisfies triangle inequality theorem, therefore, the given segments could form a triangle.
