The lengths of 2 sides of a triangle game are 55 and 20 what are the possible lengths of the 3rd side

45, 60, 72

Step-by-step explanation:

use the Triangle Inequality Theorem which states that the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side

20 + x > 55  This tells us that the minimum value of the third side

x > 35           must be 36

20 + 55 > x   This tells us that the maximum value of the third side

75 > x            must be 74 or less

The third side must be greater than or equal to 36 and less than or equal to 74

the answer is x = 11
