Triangle inequality - practice problems - last page
In any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the remaining third one.a+b > c
The triangle inequality is three inequalities that are true simultaneously. The inequalities result directly from the triangle's construction. If one side were longer than two in total, the vertex against the longest side could not be constructed (or drawn), and the triangle as a shape in the plane would not exist.

- Draw a triangle
We have line segments with lengths of 3cm, 5cm, 6cm, 7cm, and 9cm. What is the probability in % that if I randomly select three of them, I will be able to draw a triangle? - Triangle from sticks
Bob the boulder has many sticks of lengths 3.5 and 7. He wants to form triangles, each of whose edges consists of exactly one stick. How many non-congruent triangles can be formed with the sticks? - Triangles
Hanka cut the 20 cm long straws into three pieces. Each piece had a length in cm. Then, with these three pieces, she tried to make a triangle. a) What circuit has each of the triangles? b) How long can the longest side measure? c) How many different trian - 14 sticks
I was cleaning up my attic recently and found a set of at least 14 sticks which a curious Italian sold me some years ago. Trying hard to figure out why I bought it from him, I realized that the set has the incredible property that there are no three stick - Circumference 9811
Kristýna chose a certain odd natural number divisible by three. Jakub and David then examined triangles with a circumference in millimeters equal to the number selected by Kristýna and whose sides have lengths in millimeters expressed by different integer
Ivo wants to draw all the triangles whose two sides have a length of 4 cm and 9 cm, and the length of the third side is expressed in whole centimeters. How many triangles does he have?We apologize, but in this category are not a lot of examples.
