a, b, c - sides of a triangle

a + b > c

a + c > b

b + c > a

--------------------------

We have a = 5m and b = 11m. Substitute:

5 + 11 > c

16 > c → c < 16

--------------------------

5 + c > 11        subtract 5 from both sides

c > 6

--------------------------

11 + c > 5        subtract 11 from both sides

c > -6

--------------------------

c < 16 and c > 6 and c > -6

Thereofre your answer is 6m < c < 16m
