In a triangle whose 2 legs are 21 cm and 5 cm - what are the possible lengths for the third leg?

It seems that we have a triangle whose length sides are 21 cm and 5 cm. So that the third side would have a length which can be smaller than 21 + 5 = 26 cm, and bigger than 21 - 5 = 19 cm (19 cm < PR < 26 cm).
Thus, all the numbers between 19 and 26 could be the length of the third side of the given triangle.

Which side lengths form a triangle that is similar to triangle ABC?
Any triangle whose sides are in the same ratio with the corresponding sides of ABC.
Why is a triangle a special polygon?
It is the only polygon whose side lengths determine its shape.
What is the special name for three integers whose lengths form a right triangle?
Pythagorean triplets.
Example of scalene triangle?
A triangle with side lengths 1, 2, square root(3). A scalene triangle is any triangle whose sides are all of different lengths. It may or may not have a right-angle. Compare with isosceles triangles (2 out of 3 sides are equal in length) and equilateral triangles (all 3 sides are equal in length).
What is the length of the third side of a triangle whose opposite angle is 108 degrees when its two other sides are 17.1 cm and 28.8 cm in lengths?
Using the cosine rule its 3rd length works out as 37.77 cm rounded to two decimal places.
What happens if you double the side lengths of a regular triangle?
You get a regular triangle whose sides are double the length.

How do you draw a scalene triangle?
By constructing a triangle whose 3 sides are of different lengths and its 3 interior acute angles have different sizes

How do you use the Pythagorean theorem when c is 36?
If you have two lengths of the triangle, the Pythagorean theorem will help you find the third. As it is, you need to find two numbers whose squares add up to 1296. There are a lot of possibilities.
What is the perimeter of a triangle whose side lengths are x2 4 2x-1 and 5x?
Add them all together.
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs have lengths of 12 meters and 35 meters?
37 meters
A triangle with lengths of 16 30 and 35 a right angle?
A triangle whose sides are 16, 30, and 35 in length is not a right triangle, becausethe square of the length of the longest side is not equal to the sum of the squaresof the lengths of the other two sides.But if the 35 were a 34 instead, then it wouldbe.
Is it possible to have a triangle whose angle measures are in the ratio 3 to 4 to 5 and whose side lengths are the same ratio?
No. If the angles are in the ratio 3:4:5, the sides will be in the ratio sin(3):sin(4):sin(5) - NOT in the ratio 3:4:5.
