So an example of this is one the dollar bill. The face of the pyramid, including the eye, is about 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch by 1/2 inch. 3/4+3/4, or 3/2>1/2 and 3/4-3/4, or 0<1/2.

An example of a triangle is a square I folded to form a right triangle. The lengths of the sides are 5 in, 5 in, and approximately 7 in. I can say this is a triangle by the triangle inequality theorem. 5+5=10, 1->7. 5+7=12, and 12>5. Thus, I can conclude this is a triangle. 12/16/2014 06:48:43 am
An example of a triangle in real life is in the 8th Gen Honda CIvic Type R (COming to US in 2 months). The exhaust in the car is in a triangular shape. I can prove that this in a triangle because the exhaust has 3 sides measuring 2.4 inches, 4.17 inches and 5.5 inches.SO using the inequality 2.4+4.17=6.57 and 5.5 +0= 5.5 and 6.57>5.5. Therefore the exhaust is a triangle.

An example of a triangle that follows the triangle inequality theorem is my brother's triangle that he had to make for a school project. Basically, they had to make shape using only lines that measured 3 inches. My brother drew an equilateral triangle (3 by 3 by 3). This triangle follows the triangle inequality theorem because 3+3>3

an example of a real life triangle is a 3,4,5 triangle used in the Khan Academy videos ha.. and they are common right angle side measurements and it shows the triangle inequality theorem because 3+4 > 5, 5+4 > 3, and 3+5 > 4

An example of a triangle in my house or outside my house is a folded napkin. The side dimensions of the triangle are 6 in. By 6 in. By 8.5 in. By triangle inequality theorem the triangle is a triangle. 6+6>8.5, 6+8.5>6, thus proving the theorem.

In my billiard/pool table, we have a pool ball rack to keep the balls in place. This makes sure that the balls stay in place, and don't move around when the rack is lifted. The dimensions of my pool ball rack measure 8 inches for all three side lengths. The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that a + b > c, a + c > b, and b + c > a. The side lengths follow this theorem, making sure that the balls stay in place.

One example of a triangle that follows the triangle inequality theorem are the top and bottom parts of my binder. It has sides which measure 1.5 inches, 10.5 inches and 10.5 inches. This uses the inequality theorem because 10.5 plus 1.5 is greater than 10.5. This inequality is used twice. Also 10.5 plus 10.5 is greater than 1.5.

One example of a triangle is a face of a wrapper of a Toblerone bar. Each side is roughly an inch. Therefore, 1+1>1, which, by the Triangle Inequality Theorem, they can be lengths of the sides of a triangle.

One example of this is roofs. Is the plural of "roof" "roofs"? I'm not sure, but I'm too lazy to search it since my computer is riddled with viruses. I majorly digress, but back to roofs.

An object in my house that forms a triangle is my lamp. The length of the sides are approximately 8 inches, 8 inches, and 6 inches. This demonstrates the triangle inequality theorem since 8+6>8, and 8+8>6. Therefore the lamp is a triangle.

Well, this may seem like a weird answer, but the blades on the fan in my house are triangles. Once I measured it, it was 4*12*14 (In inches). This obviously is a triangle, math vise and in real life situations. 4+12>14, 4+14>12 and 12+14>4. So this is a real life situation of triangles.

The triangle created by your arm to your head while taking a selfie also follows the principle of triangle inequality. For example, while measuring my arm to my elbow if was about 1.5 ft and from my elbow to the palm (where you hold the phone) is about 2 feet. From my face to my palm was about 3 ft and so this follows the principle. I.E. 1.5+2>3

an example of a triangle that follows the triangle inequality theorem would be a slice of pizza (even though it wouldn't be perfectly triangular because of the pizza crust). if the dimensions/side lengths of the slice didn't follow the triangle inequality theorem then it would be all lopsided and awkward.

Even naturally occurring triangles must follow the principles for The Triangle Inequality. Find an example of the Triangle Inequality Theorem in a living thing or an object found around the house or outside. Ex: bird beaks, star constellations, leaves,

An example of a triangle is half of my square sandwich for my snack.The sandwich is almost an equilateral triangle having side lengths of 5, 5, and about 5.1. If a person adds any two side it will be greater than the third side. For example, 5+5>5.1, 5+5.1>5 and etc.

while baking cookies, we made a square cookie or pie with side measurements of 3 inches . Then we cut it into 2 congruent triangles along the diagonal. The measurements of each triangle are 3 by 3 by square root of 18. Well, 3 plus 3 is greater than squareroot of 18. And square root of 18 plus 3 is greater than 3 2 times

An example of the triangle inequality is a packaging box. One of the faces is an equilateral triangle. Each side is about 3 inches...this proves the triangle inequality theorem as 3+3>3, and that applies for the rest of the sides as well...

an example of this is a paper triangle i cut that is roughly 3cm, 3cm, 5cm. 3-3=0, 3+3=6 --> 6>5>0. 5-3=2, 5+3=8 --> 8>3>2. Comments are closed.
