a) longer than b) shorter than c) equal to d) cannot be determined
A 8.  Can we form a triangle with line segments that have lengths 2, 8, and 14 units?

C 11. Which of the following is the converse of the hinge theorem?

a. If two triangles have two congruent sides, then the triangle with the shorter third side will have the larger angle opposite
that third side.
b. If two triangles have two congruent sides, then the two triangles must be congruent.
c. If two triangles have two congruent sides, then the triangle with the longer third side will have the larger angle opposite
that third side.
