ViviNo, segments 1, 8, and 8 cannot form a triangle. In order for three segments to form a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, 1 + 8 is equal to 9, which is not greater than 8. Therefore, a triangle cannot be formed.

Can the segments 9 9 1 form a triangle?
Yes the given segments would form an isosceles triangle
Can the segments 9 9 and 1 form a triangle?
Yes the given segments would form an isosceles triangle
Could the segments 7 1 7 form a triangle?
Yes. What you should watch out for is that, to form a triangle, none of the segments should be longer (or as long as) the other two segments combined. Just check whether the longest segment is longer than the sum of the other two - if it is, then you can't form a triangle.

Can segments 1 8 and 8 form a triangle?
Yes, it would form a tall isosceles triangle. Add the smallest two (1+8=9 in this case). If it is greater than the longest (8 in this case) then they can form a triangle.
