When a triangle is formed from three given side lengths is the triangle a unique triangle or can more than one triangle be formed using those same side lengths explain?

A triangle formed from three given side lengths can be either unique or non-unique depending on the specific lengths. If the triangle inequality theorem is satisfied (the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side), then only one unique triangle can be formed. However, if the side lengths are such that they can form a degenerate triangle (where the sum of two sides equals the third), or if two sides are equal and the third side allows for more than one valid configuration (as in some cases with isosceles triangles), more than one triangle can potentially be formed. In general, for three distinct side lengths that satisfy the triangle inequality, only one triangle exists.


Could 4 7 7 be side lengths of a triangle?

Yes and the given lengths would form an isosceles triangle.


The lengths of 2 sides of an isosceles triangle are 7 and 5 what are all the possible lengths of the third side?

An isosceles triangle must have two sides of equal size.Since you have a side of 7 and 5, for it to be isosceles, your third side must be either 7 or 5.

A triangle has two of lengths 7and 9 What value could the length of the third side be?

The third side of a triangle must be greater than the absolute difference of the two given sides and less than the sum of the two given sides. In this case, the third side must be greater than |7-9| = 2 and less than 7+9 = 16. Therefore, the possible lengths for the third side of the triangle could be any value greater than 2 and less than 16.

How do you classify a triangle with 3 given side lengths?

That depends on what the side lengths are. Until the side lengths are known, the triangle can only be classified as a triangle.


The lengths of 2 sides of an isosceles triangle are 7 and 5 what are all the possible lengths of the third side?

An isosceles triangle must have two sides of equal size.Since you have a side of 7 and 5, for it to be isosceles, your third side must be either 7 or 5.


What does the triangle inequality state?

It says the sum of the lengths of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. Not equal to but GREATER than the third side.
