Directions: Adjust the side lengths accordingly, then move the blue points to try and create a triangle.[br][br]1) Make a = 5, b = 7, c = 4. Can you create a triangle with these lengths?[br]2) Make a = 3, b = 7, c = 3. Can you create a triangle with these lengths? [br]3) Make a = 3, b = 7, c = 4. Can you create a triangle with these lengths?
