will give brainist! 2 sides of a triangle = 6 inches and 12 inches. Can the perimeter of the triangle be 36 inches?

Respuesta :

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is

difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides , that is

12 - 6 < x < 12 + 6 , that is

6 < x < 18

For the perimeter to be 36 then the then the third side would be 18

6 + 12 + 18 = 36

However x < 18

So the perimeter cannot be 36
