Question 7.
Can you construct ∆DEF with DE = 7 cm, EF = 14 cm and FD = 5 cm. ? If not give reasons. .
Answer:
No, we can’t construct the triangle. Because the given sides of ∆DEF are DE = 7 cm, EF = 14 cm, FD = 5 cm.
In any triangle sum of any. two sides is always greater than the third side.
DE + FD = 7 + 5 = 12 cm < 14 cm
Sum of DE + FD < EF.
So, with the given measurements construction of ADEF is not possible.
