Question

Which inequality explains why these three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle? ef fd > de ed ef < df ed ef > df ef fd < de

Answer 1

The answer is B.
ED + EF < DF

Answer 2

The inequality that explains why the three segments cannot be used tyo construct a triangle is ED + EF < DF. The reason is that the inequality property of triangles states that the hypotenuse is greater than either of the two sides, and less than their sum, and the inequality selected states that the hypotenuse would be greater that their sum.
