Correct Answer: 17 cm
Solution : We know that the sum of the length of either two sides of a triangle must be more than the third side. So, the third side < (14 + 9) Or, the third side < 23 Also, the difference in lengths of any two sides of a triangle is smaller than the third side. So, the third side > (14 – 9) Or, the third side > 5 Out of all options, 17 cm satisfies these conditions. Hence, the correct answer is 17 cm.
