Triangle Inequality Theorem - The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
If ABC is a triangle, then the following inequalities are true: AB < BC + AC, BC < AB + AC,
AC < AB + BC
Use the triangle inequality theorem and examine all 3 combinations of the sides. As soon as the sum of any 2 sides is less than the third side then the triangle's sides do not satisfy the theorem.
