The measures of two sides of a triangle are 5.2 and 8.1. Determine the range of values for the third side of the triangle.(1 point)
<n<
Apologies for the mistake in the previous response.
To find the range of values for the third side of the triangle, we can use the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the length of any side of a triangle must be greater than the difference between the lengths of the other two sides and less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides.
In this case, the lengths of the two sides are 5.2 and 8.1. Let's call the length of the third side "x".
So, we have the inequalities:
8.1 - 5.2 < x < 8.1 + 5.2
2.9 < x < 13.3
Therefore, the range of values for the third side of the triangle is:
2.9 < x < 13.3
It is
2.9<n<13.3
To find the range of values for the third side of the triangle, we can use the triangle inequality theorem.
According to the triangle inequality theorem, for any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.
In this case, the lengths of the two sides are 5.2 and 8.1. Let's call the length of the third side "x".
So, we have the inequality:
5.2 + 8.1 > x
Adding the two sides, we get:
13.3 > x
Therefore, the range of values for the third side of the triangle is:
0 < x < 13.3
this isnt the answer
Apologies for the incorrect response earlier.
To find the range of values for the third side of the triangle, we can use the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the length of any side of a triangle must be less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides.
In this case, the lengths of the two sides are 5.2 and 8.1. Let's call the length of the third side "x".
So, we have the inequalities:
5.2 + x > 8.1 (the length of the third side plus 5.2 must be greater than the length of the second side)
8.1 + x > 5.2 (the length of the third side plus 8.1 must be greater than the length of the first side)
Simplifying these inequalities, we get:
x > 2.9 (subtracting 5.2 from both sides)
x > -2.9 (subtracting 8.1 from both sides)
Therefore, the range of values for the third side of the triangle is:
-2.9 < x < 2.9
the 2nd box is 13.3 so what is the first box
idk the bot is being a ding-dong right now
