WE TRINGLES!!!Topic:TrianglesAim:How can we determine if side lengths can form a triangle?
TryNow:Dennis has a sailboat. The sail on his boat is in the shape of a triangle with side lengths 6 feet, 8 feet and 10 feet. These dimensions work to form a triangle, but not just any three lengths can form a triangle. Complete the investigation to determine which side lengths can form a triangle.
