What is the maximum and minimum whole number side length for triangle XYZ with giving side lengths of 3cm and 5cm Please explain why​

maximum length is 7 cm.

minimum length is 3 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the sum of the lengths of two sides is larger than the value of the other side.(Here, the last side would be the longest side)

3+5=8 so the biggest whole number less than 8 is 7.

So, the maximum whole number side length is 7 cm.

Also, the difference between the lengths of two sides is less than the length of the other side.

5-3=2 so the smallest whole number greater than 2 is 3.

So, the minimum whole number side length is 3 cm.
