Question
There is a quadrilateral PLAY with PL = 3cm, LA = 4cm, AY = 4.5 cm, PY = 2cm. Which of the following values of LY is not possible?
Answer: Option C
:
C
Since one side of a triangle cannot be greater than thesum of the other two sides, diagonal LY must be smaller than the sum of PL + PY and smaller than the sum of AL + AY. PL + PY =5 and AL + AY = 8.5. Hence, LY must be lessthan 5. Thus, the correct answer is 6.
