Question

What’s the range of possible sizes for side x

Answer 1

The rule for triangle sides is that any one side must be less than the sum of the other two sides.

x < 6+5.8

x < 11.8

6 < x+5.8

6-5.8 < x

0.2 < x

5.8 < x+6

5.8-6 < x

-0.2 < x

* x is a distance, cannot be negative or zero

0.2 < x < 11.8
