To know if it is possible to construct a triangle, it is necessary to add any of the measures of two of its sides, and if the sum is greater than the third side, then it is possible.
Example 1:
Is it possible to construct a triangle which sides measure 8, 2, and 5 cm;
even though:
8 + 2 > 5 and 8 + 5 > 2 ; but, as: 2 + 5 <>
it is not possible to construct a triangle with these measurements.
Example 2:
Is it possible to construct a triangle which sides measure 6, 4, and 7cm;
6 + 4 > 7 and 6 + 7 > 4 and 7 + 4 > 6
It is possible!

Thanks teacher, because I already understand that if you add 2 sides of a triangle and the sum is bigger than the third one, then it is posible.

thank you miss, for the examples and the explanation now i understand more about the triangles.
