Complete the inequality so that it represents the whole-number values that side a
could be to create a triangle.
An illustration of a triangle shows an equation along the base as b equals 6 and the hypotenuse as c equals 7. The third side on the triangle is labeled as a.
|b - c| < a < b + c
|6 - 7| < a < 6 + 7
|-1 < a < 13
Therefore, the whole-number values that side a could be to create a triangle are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12.
