Example: Given two sides of a triangle are 8_in & 11_in. Find all the possible lengths of the third side (also known as S_3)
Example: Given two sides of a triangle are 8_in & 11_in. Find all the possible lengths of the third side (also known as S_3)
Solution: We know that 8 + 11 must be greater than S_3
Solution: We know that 8 + 11 must be greater than S_3
