Answer:
Largest possible number is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let the sides be a, b and c
[tex]a = 6[/tex]
[tex]b = 1[/tex]
Required
Determine the maximum value of c
The relationship between sides of a triangle is that:
[tex]c < a + b[/tex]
Substitute values for a and b
[tex]c < 6 + 1[/tex]
[tex]c < 7[/tex]
Assume the sides are integer. If c < 7 is a solution, then the maximum of c is 6.
