Which could be the side lengths of a triangle? (A) 2,2,4 (B) 3,4,7 (C) 4,5,8 (D) 5,5,10 (E) 7,3,10 PLEASE HELP

(C) 4,5,8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 4+5 = 9 and 9 is bigger than 8, that means that the side 8 can fit into the triangle without there being an open space.

Option C { 4,5,8 }

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the length of two sides together must be greater than the length of the remaining side. Respectively their difference must be less than the length of the another side.

* I like to memorize this concept by thinking about a door. The more you open the door, the greater the distance between the door and the wall - as they are proportional. That is how we concluded this theorem.

{ 2, 2, 4 } is our first option. The difference of 4 and 2 is equal to the remaining length, 2. { 3, 4, 7 } is not applicable as well, considering that the addition of 3 and 4 is equivalent to the length of the 3rd side, 7. However, the lengths { 4, 5,8 } have no such " errors. " It could be the side lengths of a possible triangle.

Solution = { 4,5,8 }
