Which of the following options does NOT give the lengths of three sides of any triangle? |
12, 18, 25 18, 23, 41 7, 10, 12 4, 7, 9 |
18, 23, 41 |
Three sides form triangle iff Sum of two sides of triangle > Third side Lets solve it one by one for each option :- A. 12, 18, 25 12 + 18 > 25 30 > 25 B. 18, 23, 41 18 + 23 = 41 ( It is 41 which is equals to third not greater than 3rd side ) So, we find the group of 3 sides that do not form a triangle. No need to solve further Answer :- B. 18, 23, 41 |
