Question

Roland said it is possible to make a triangle from the following lengths: 31 inches, 70
inches, and 37 inches. He explained that 101 inches is greater than 37 inches and the
class agreed. What should now happen?
O The teacher should be happy. They are correct!
The teacher should be sad. The correct answer is 68 inches is NOT greater than 70 inches
therefore a triangle can't be created.

Answer 1

Answer:

the teacher should be sad. the correct answer is 68 inches is NOT greater than 70 inches, therefore a triangle can't be created

Step-by-step explanation:

in a triangle, 2 sides added together have to be greater than the third side or else the triangle can't be created. therefore, since 31+37=68 inches, and 68<70, the triangle can't be created.
