Explanation
The distance from two A nad B is five miles. C is six miles from B To find distance between A to C there are three possibilities.
Case: $$1$$ In triangle $$ABC,AB=5$$ and $$BC=6$$
Here , the length of AC must be less than the sum of other two sides and greater than the difference of the other sides
$$6.5<6+5$$
$$\Rightarrow 1<Ac<11$$
Thus $$AC=7$$ is a possible
$$\therefore $$ distance from $$A$$ to $$C$$ could be $$11,1 $$ or $$7$$ miles.

Explanation
An important rule to remember about triangles is called the third side rule:
The length of the third side of a triangle is less than the sum of the lengths of the other two sides and greater than the (positive) difference of the lengths of the other two sides.
For this triangle, the length of the third side must be greater than $$9-7=2$$
97=2
and less than $$9+7=16$$
9+7=16
. All the answers are possible except for answer E, which is equal to $$16$$
16
but not less than $$16$$
16

Explanation
In triangle $$ACD,$$ angle $$ADC$$ is greater than the other two angles
By sine rule , we get $$\dfrac{AC}{AD}=\dfrac{\angle(ADC)}{\angle(DCA)}$$
We know that $$\angle(ADC) > \angle(DCA)$$
Therefore $$AC>AD=6$$
Therefore option $$E$$ is correct

Explanation
Given that two sides of triangle are $$7,9$$
Let the third side be $$x$$
We have $$7+9>x$$ and $$x+9>7$$ and $$x+7>9$$ and $$x>0$$
We get $$x<16$$ and $$x>2$$
Therefore the third side will lie between $$2$$ and $$16$$.

for triplet to be the length of triangle, it must satisfy triangle property.
sum of any two sides must be greater than third side
So, $$7,4,4$$ is correct answer.
If we consider remaining options, observe that sum of two sides is less than third side, so they cannot form triangle.

Both triangles are congruent.
Explanation
Given: $$\Delta PQR$$ is right angled at $$Q$$, $$PR = 5 cm, QR = 4 cm$$.
Length of sides of another triangle are $$3 cm, 5 cm, 4 cm$$.
According to question,
Ref. image
Applying Pythagoras theorem in $$\Delta PQR$$,
$$H^2 = P^2 + B^2$$
$$5^2 = P^2 + 4^2$$
$$25 - 16 = P^2$$
$$9 = P^2$$
$$P = 3 cm, PQ = 3cm$$
Now we can see that both the triangles have equal sides.
i.e.
$$PQ = AB = 3cm$$
$$PR = AC = 5 cm$$
$$QR = BC = 4 cm$$
It means by SSS congruence property both triangles are congruent.
{SSS congruence property: Two triangles are congruent if the three sides of one triangle are respectively equal to the three sides of other triangle.}
i.e. $$\Delta PQR \cong \Delta ABC$$
The correct option is (D). i.e. both triangles are congruent.

Explanation

In triangles, $$ABD$$ and $$ADC$$

$$\angle BAD=\angle DAC$$ ....... (Given)
$$AD=AD$$ ........... (Common side)
$$\therefore$$ $$\triangle ABD\cong \triangle ADC$$ ........ [By S.A.S criterion]

Explanation
Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of two side lengths of a triangle is always greater than the third side.
If this is true for all three combinations of added side lengths.
i.e. $$a+b> c,$$
$$b+c> a$$ a
nd $$c+a> b$$ then the lengths form a triangle
(A) $$11+4=15> 6$$
And $$ 4+6 =10\ngtr 11$$
So, it does not form a triangle
(B) $$13+14=27> 25$$
And $$14+25=39> 13$$
And $$25+13=38> 14$$
So, it forms a triangle
(C) $$8+4=12> 3$$
And $$8+3=11> 4$$
And $$4+3=7\ngtr 8$$
So, it does not form a triangle
(D) $$5+16=21> 5$$
And $$5+5=10\ngtr 16$$
So, it does not form a triangle.
Hence option B is the correct answer

Explanation
Here, $$\triangle ABC$$ is an isosceles triangle.
Given,
$$\angle ABC=\angle ACB$$
.
We know, by isosceles triangle property, angles opposite to equal sides are equal.
Thus, if
$$\angle ABC=\angle ACB$$, then
$$AB=AC$$ (as
$$\angle ACB$$ is opposite to side $$AB$$ and
$$\angle ABC$$ is opposite to side $$AC$$).
Hence, option $$A$$ is correct.

$$18cm$$
Explanation
$$\triangle ABC$$ is an isosceles triangle.
Gi en that $$\angle ABC=\angle ACB$$, $$AB=2BC$$ and $$AB=8$$ cm$$
So, $$AB=AC=8$$ cm
$$\Rightarrow BC=\dfrac {AB}{2}=4$$ cm
Perimeter of $$\triangle ABC= 8+8+4=20$$ cm.
Here, $$\triangle ABC$$ is an isosceles triangle.
Given,
$$\angle ABC=\angle ACB$$, $$AB=2BC$$ and $$AB=8 cm$$
.
We know, by isosceles triangle property, angles opposite to equal sides are equal.
Then,
So, $$AB=AC=8 cm$$.
Since
$$AB=2BC$$,
$$\Rightarrow BC=\dfrac {AB}{2}=4 cm$$.
Thus, p
erimeter of $$\triangle ABC= 8+8+4=20 cm$$.
Hence, option $$C$$ is correct.

$$\angle ACD=\angle BCE$$.......$$[ 1]$$
So, $$\Delta ACD\cong \Delta BCE$$......[by $$ASA$$ congruency criterion]
Hence by $$CPCT$$, the corresponding parts are also equal.
Then, $$AD=BE$$.
Therefore, the given statement is true.
Hence, option $$A$$ is correct.

$$\implies$$ $$\angle ACD=\angle BDC$$.
Also, $$CD=CD$$ [Common]
$$\bigtriangleup ACD \cong \bigtriangleup BDC$$ .....(By $$ASA$$ congruency criterion).
Therefore, by $$CPCT$$ rule, the corresponding parts are equal.
Then,
$$AD=BC$$ and $$\angle A=\angle B$$.
Hence, option $$C$$ is correct.
