Question

question 10 of 10 its not possible to build a triangle with side lengths of 3, 3, and 9. a. true b. false

Explanation:

Step1: Recall triangle - inequality theorem

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

Step2: Check side - length combinations

For side lengths \(a = 3\), \(b = 3\), and \(c = 9\), check \(a + b>c\), \(a + c>b\), and \(b + c>a\).
First, \(a + b=3 + 3=6\), and \(6<9\) (i.e., \(a + b
ot>c\)).

Answer:

A. True
