Classify the triangle with sides measuring 11 cm, 5 cm,
and 10 cm.
equilateral
isosceles
scalene
none of the above
You only have 3 choices:
equilateral: all sides would have to be equal. Are they?
isoscelse: two of the sides would have to be equal. Are they?
scalene: all sides are different. Are they?
All you had to know was the names of these terms.
Obviously you don't know the meanings of all of these terms.

To classify the triangle with sides measuring 11 cm, 5 cm, and 10 cm, we need to determine the type of triangle based on the lengths of its sides.
An equilateral triangle has three equal sides.
An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and one different side.
A scalene triangle has three different sides.
To determine the type of triangle, we can compare the side lengths:
Side 1: 11 cm
Side 2: 5 cm
Side 3: 10 cm
Since all three sides have different lengths, the triangle is not equilateral.
Since two sides have different lengths and one side is equal to another, the triangle is not isosceles.
Since all three sides have different lengths, the triangle is scalene.
Therefore, the correct classification for the triangle with side lengths 11 cm, 5 cm, and 10 cm is scalene.
