Identify Sides of a Triangle

Answer: Because the sum of two measures is not greater than the length of the third side, the sides cannot form a triangle.

Identify Sides of a Triangle

B. Determine whether the measures 6.8, 7.2, and 5.1 can be lengths of the sides of a triangle.

Answer: All of the inequalities are true, so 6.8, 7.2, and 5.1 can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

Check each inequality.

Determine Possible Side Lengths

In ΔPQR, PQ = 7.2 and QR = 5.2. Which measure cannot be PR?

A 7

B 9

C 11

D 13

Read the Item

You need to determine which value is not valid.

Solve the Item

Solve each inequality to determine the range of values for PR.

Determine Possible Side Lengths

Graph the inequalities on the same number line.

The range of values that fit all three inequalities is

Determine Possible Side Lengths

Answer: D

Examine the answer choices. The only value that does not satisfy the compound inequality is 13 since 13 is greater than 12.4. Thus, the answer is choice D.
