Question

Is it possible to construct a triangle whose sides measuring $7cm$, $5cm$ and $12cm$?

Answer 1

State whether the construction of a triangle is possible or not

It is known that the construction of a triangle can only be possible if the sum of two sides is greater than the third side.

It is given that the sides of the triangle are: $7cm,5cm,12cm$

Here $7+5<12$.

Hence, the construction of a triangle is not possible with sides $7cm$, $5cm$ and $12cm$.
