Is DE side in one of the triangles?
Since line segment DE does not correspond to a full side of any of the triangles present within the given geometry, we conclude that the statement “DE is a side in one of the triangles” is Not true.
Not true
Is DE side in one of the triangles?
Look for three points connected by three line segments that form a closed shape. In this figure, triangle ABC is formed by connecting points A, B, and C.
DE is a line segment inside the triangle, but it doesn't connect two vertices of triangle ABC. The actual sides are AB, BC, and AC.
Yes! If triangles share vertices, they can share sides too. But in this case, DE doesn't form a side of any triangle in the figure.
Count systematically: look for every possible combination of three points that are connected by line segments. Make sure each set of three points forms a complete closed triangle.
More points can create multiple triangles! Always check each possible triangle separately and identify its three sides before determining if your line segment belongs to any of them.
