In δefg, is it possible for segment ge to measure 9 units? yes, because 3 + 5 > 9, 5 + 9 > 3, and 9 + 3 > 5 no, because 3 + 5 > 9, 5 + 9 > 3, and 9 + 3 > 5 yes, because 3 + 5 < 9, 5 + 9 > 3, and 9 + 3 > 5 no, because 3 + 5 < 9, 5 + 9 > 3, and 9 + 3 > 5

No, because 3 + 5 < 9, 5 + 9 > 3, and 9 + 3 > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

Triangle EFG in which segment EF measures 3 units and segment FG measures 5 units

In ΔEFG, is it possible for segment GE to measure 9 units?

we know that

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side

so

Applying the Inequality Theorem

1) EF+FG > GE

substitute

3+5 > 9

8 > 6 > is not true

2) EF +GE > FG

substitute

3+9 > 5

12 > 5 ---> is true

3) FG+GE > EF

substitute

5+9 > 3

14 > 3 > is true

therefore

No, because 3 + 5 < 9, 5 + 9 > 3, and 9 + 3 > 5

no solution
