If one side of a triangle is 12 cm and one is 16 cm how long is the third side?

Any length from just over 4 cm (=16cm-12cm) to just under 28 cm (=16cm+12cm).
The question does not state the triangle is right angled. But if it did, the third side would be 20 cm.

If one side of a triangle is 11 and the other side is 5 what is the minimum length of the third side?
The minimum third side length of a triangle having one side of 11 and another side of 5 is 6.
What is the measurement of the third side of a triangle if one side is 15cm and one is 8 cm?
If it's a right angle triangle then by using Pythagoras' theorem the third side is 17 cm
How do you get the other sides of a triangle when you only have one side?
You need the measures of two sides and for the triangle to be a right triangle to figure out the third side.
What kind of triangle has one side that is 3 cm long one side that is 2cm long and one side that is 4 cm long?
a scalene triangle, has no sides or angles the same size
How long is the third side of a right triangle if side one is 12 feet long and side two is 14 feet long?
Either 18.439 feet, or 7.211 feet depending on if the 14 foot side is connected to the right angle, or if it is the hypotenuse.
If one side of a triangle is 11 and the other side is 5 what is the minimum length of the third side?
The minimum third side length of a triangle having one side of 11 and another side of 5 is 6.
Can you build a triangle with side lengths of 5 and 10?
Yes, one side is 5, one side is 10, and the third side can be however long you can make it. As long as it connects with the edges of the side of 5 and the side of 10.
What is the measurement of the third side of a triangle if one side is 15cm and one is 8 cm?
If it's a right angle triangle then by using Pythagoras' theorem the third side is 17 cm
How do you get the other sides of a triangle when you only have one side?
You need the measures of two sides and for the triangle to be a right triangle to figure out the third side.
What triangle has two equal sides and one longer one?
An isosceles triangle. It is an isosceles triangle even if the third side is shorter.
If one side of a triangle is 6feet and the other is 2feet what is the third side?
6 feet
If one side of a triangle is 3 feet and the other is 2 feet what is the third side?
The length of the third side of this triangle must be greater than 1 foot and less than 5 feet, and the third side would be either 2 feet or 3 feet if it were an isosceles triangle.
What kind of triangle has one side that is 3 cm long one side that is 2cm long and one side that is 4 cm long?
a scalene triangle, has no sides or angles the same size
What is the midpoint theorem?
Triangle Midpoint Theorem: The line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is congruent to one half of the third side.
How long is the third side of a right triangle if side one is 12 feet long and side two is 14 feet long?
Either 18.439 feet, or 7.211 feet depending on if the 14 foot side is connected to the right angle, or if it is the hypotenuse.
If an isosceles triangle has the two long sides 46 mm each what is the third side?
Impossible to answer - we need the value of at least one angle !
How do you find the side length of a right triangle if you have one side length?
One side is not enough. For a right triangle the third side can be calculated by Pythagoras' Theorem if you know the length of any two sides.
