Question
Are the following triangles possible? [4 MARKS]
(i) AB = 4 cm, BC = 5.6 cm, AC = 10 cm
(ii) A = 60oB = 120oC = 30o  
(iii) AB = 5 cm, BC = 7 cm, AC = 11 cm
(iv) A = 60oB = 90oC = 30o

Answer withReason:1 Mark each
(i) Triangle ABC is not possible. This is because, for any triangle, the sum of two sides should be greater than the third but AB + BC < AC.
(ii) Triangle ABC is not possible. Sum of all angles in a triangle should be 180o but here,
A(60o) + B(120o) + C(30o) = 210o
(iii)Triangle ABC is possible because it satisfies the condition for the formation of a triangle i.e. the sum of two sides should be greater than the third.
(iv)Triangle ABC is possible. Sum of all angles in a triangle should be 180o and here,
A(60o) + B(90o) + C(30o) = 180o
