Respuesta :

Therefore the inequality to the triangle is 5 < x < 9,  Option A is the correct answer.

What is Triangle Inequality Theorem ?

According to triangle Inequality theorem , The sum of the two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side

It is given that the length of two sides is 2 and 7 inches and the third side is x inch.

then ,

2 + 7 > x

9 >x

x< 9

and if it is not the largest side ,

2 +x > 7

x >5

Therefore the inequality to the triangle is

5 < x < 9

Therefore Option A is the correct answer.
