3. Triangle Inequalities:
Can you form a triangle using
ANY three lengths for the sides?
How do the angle measures
relate to the length of the sides?
4. Triangle Inequality conjecture:
The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle
is greater that the length of the third side.
Think about it! If two sides add up to a smaller number
than the third side then the sides won't meet!

Side lengths: 2, 5, 8------- 2+5=7 which
is less than 8
