If de = 37 cm and ef = 16 cm, then what are the possible lengths for df so that de, ef, and df can form a triangle? explain your reasoning.

The length of DF must be between 21 and 53.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the length of two sides added together must exceed the length of the 3rd side. So, since EF is the shortest of the two givens, we know that EF + DF must be greater than DE. So we can plug in these numbers to find the minimum.

EF + DF > DE

16 + DF > 37

DF > 21

Now, for the upper maximum, we know that the two given lengths must be greater than the length of DF. So again, we can solve for the maximum using the amounts.

DE + EF > DF

37 + 16 > DF

53 > DF

With these two in mind, we know that DF must be between 21 and 53

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

odd numbers are only divisible by 1 and itself.

even numbers are divisible by more than 1 and itself.

for example 6 is even because it is divisible by more than 1 and its self. 1 x 6= 6 ; 2 x 3= 6

and 7 is odd because only 7 x 1 equals seveb

44
