No, By the triangle inequality theorem (or something like that), the sum of any two sides of a triangle must add up to be greater than the third side. 8+7

Can you determine the perimeter of a triangle if you only know the lenghts of two sides?

By using the pythagorean theorem, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sums of the squares on the two other sides. It states that a2 + b2 = c2 For instance if a and b are 3 and 4, then 3 squared is 9, 4 sq'd is 16 therefore 9+16=25. The square root of 25 is 5, the value for c.
