प्रश्न
Is it possible to construct a triangle with lengths of its sides as 9 cm, 7 cm and 17 cm? Give reason for your answer.

उत्तर
No. Here, we see that 9 + 7 = 16 < 17
i.e., the sum of two sides of a triangle is less than the third side.
Hence, it contradicts the property that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.
Therefore, it is not possible to construct a triangle with given sides.
