Solution

$L e t u s t a k e s i d e s a = 4.8 c m, b = 1.1 c m, c = 5.0 c m$

$H e r e, a + b \geq c a + c \geq b b + c \geq a$

$∴ b y t h e t h e o r e m I n a t r i a n g l e, s u m o f t w o s i d e s a r e a l w a y s g r e a t e r t h a n t h i r d s i d e .$

$H e n c e, t r i a n g l e i s p o s s i b l e .$
