Yes, those measurements can form a triangle. If you add any two sides, they will always be greater than the third, so it can be a triangle.

Those measurements are actually called a "Pythagorean Triple", because those measurements (and their multiples) will always be a right triangle. Any Pythagorean Triple will measure to a right triangle.

I don't have nor own a protractor BUT a triangle can not be if the 3 angles in the triangle are not 180 degrees. Draw it up and find out if it can. Out of the top of my head I guess it can. It not 100% sure

No because the sum of its smallest sides must be greater than its longest side

No, Because 7 & 8 are smaller and it has to be equal not smaller.

Which of the following is the statement of the Triangle Inequality Theorem?

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


A rhombus has one 65 degree angle and a 5 cm side Is this enough information to find the remaining angles and side lengths?

Yes, because the opposite sides and angles are congruent.


Audio John wants to measure the height of a tree He walks exactly 100 feet from the base of the tree and looks up The angle from the ground to the top of the tree is 33ΒΊ How tall is the tree?

64.9408 ft. You calculate this using trigonometry. Sine, cosine, and tangent are fractions made by dividing the length of one of the sides of a triangle by one of the other sides. The sine, cosine, or tangent for an angle is always the same, so if we know the angle and the length of one of the sides we can calculate the lengths of the other sides. Assuming the tree is at 90o to the ground we have a right angled triangle. The side of the triangle from john to the top of the tree is the hypotenuse ( the longest side) from John to the base of the tree is the adjacent side, and the ground to the top of the tree is the opposite side. Because we know the length of the adjacent side and need to find the length of the opposite, the function we use is the tangent, tangent = length of opposite side divided length of adjacent side. The angle is 33o so we look up tan 33o which is 0.6494. Tan(33)= length of opposite/length of adjacent (move length adj by multiplying both sides by length adj) Tan(33) x length of adjacent = length of opposite (length from John to tree 100ft= 30.84 metres) 0.6494 x 30.48 metres = length of opposite (which is the height of the tree) Tree height = 19.79 metres (or 64 feet 11 and 9/64 inches)


How do you measure area perimeter?

If you're trying to measure the perimeter of almost any shape like a square or triangle or octagon, simply count all the unit measurements of each side and add them together. If the unit your measuring is unknown, then leave it as units. For example, if you were finding the perimeter of a rectangle that has the measurements 6units, 6units, 4units, and 4units, the perimeter would be 20units. I hope this helped :)


How do you draw concave lens?

The shape of a concave lens is such that the middle part is thinner than the edge. If one side of the lens is flat, then the other side will be shaped inward like a cave, kind of like this: [( You can also have a concave lens where both sides are shaped inward, like this: )( You can even have a concave lens where one side is shaped outward, and the other side is shaped inward, as long as the inward-shaped side is more dramatic than the outward-shaped side.
