What is the relationship of the length of the three side of an obtuse triangle?

An obtuse triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is an obtuse angle. (greater than 90 degrees). Since the total degrees in any triangle is 180�, an obtuse triangle can only have one angle that measures more than 90�. The longest side is always opposite the obtuse angle. The length of the longest side must be less than the combined lengths of the shorter sides.
