Lab activity on Inequalities of Triangles

The students of classes IX A , B , C performed a lab activity on inequalities of triangles where they verified that any given figure is a triangle only if  “ the sum of two sides of the triangle is  greater than the third side “ and “ the difference of two sides of triangle is smaller than the third side”.
