An acute triangle has two sides measuring 8 cm and 10 cm. what is the best repres
for the third side, s?
o 2 o 6«s< 12.8
os< 2ors > 18
os< 6ors > 12.8

2 < s < 18

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know 2 sides of a triangle to be A & B and let the third side be C, the triangle inequality theorem tells us:

A - B < C < A + B

This means that the third side can take values between the sum and difference of the lengths of the other 2 sides.

So simply, we have

10 - 8 = 2

and

10 + 8 = 18

Hence, the third side can have lengths between 2 and 18

Let third side be s, so we can write:

2 < s < 18
