Question

Try to construct triangles using match sticks. Some are shown here.

Can you make a triangle with 3 matchsticks?

(Remember you have to use all the available matchsticks in each case) Name the type of triangle in each case. If you cannot make a triangle, think of reasons for it.

Answer 1

This is an acute angle triangle and it is possible with 3 matchsticks to make a triangle because sum of two sides is greater than third side.
