The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than to the length of the third side.


x - third side


if x ≤ 16 < 17 or 16 ≤ x < 17 then


x + 16 > 17 |-16

x > 1


x ∈ (1; 16]


if 16 < 17 ≤ x then


16 + 17 > x

33 > x


x ∈ [17; 33)


Answer: x ∈ (1; 16] ∪ [17; 33) → 1 < x ≤ 16 or 17 ≤ x < 33
