Determine whether a triangle can be formed with the given side lengths. If the side lengths can form a triangle, determine if they will form an isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle, or neither.

3 mi, 2 mi, 10 mi

Yes or no, the side length will form:
A. Form an equilateral triangle
B. Not form a triangle
C. form a isosceles triangle .
D. Form neither an equilateral nor an isosceles triangle

Respuesta :

Answer: D


Step-by-step explanation:


Isosceles Triangle has 3 sides, that has 2 sides of equal length.

Equilateral Triangle has 3 sides, that has 3 sides all of equal length.

If you have heard of the Hypotenuse, it has 3 sides of all different lengths maybe that's what this? But, the answer would indeed be D. Form Neither an equilateral nor an isosceles triangle.

Since the sum of the lengths of the two smaller sides is not greater than the length of the greater side, the correct option is:

B. Not form a triangle

Three segments can form a triangle if: The sum of the lengths of the two smaller segments is greater than the length of the larger segment.

  • A triangle is isosceles if two of these lengths are equal.
  • A triangle is equilateral if the tree lengths are equal.

In this problem:

  • Smaller lengths: 3 mi, 2 mi.
  • Greater length: 10 mi

[tex]2 + 3 = 5 < 10[/tex]

Since the sum of the lengths of the two smaller sides is not greater than the length of the greater side, the correct option is:

B. Not form a triangle
