Since we know that triangle inequality theorem states that sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than third side.
Now let us see if it is true for our given side lengths.
Now let us try with another pair.
We can see that sum of 5.6 and 4 is less than 10.6. Therefore, 10.6 cm, 5.6 cm and 4.0 cm can not be side lengths of a triangle.

The empirical rule you're referring to is the 68-95-99.7 rule, which asserts that for a normal (bell-shaped) distribution, approximately 68% of the distribution lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean; 95% lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and 99.7% lies within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
Let be the random variable denoting vehicle speeds along this highway. We want to find
. To use the rule, we need to rephrase this probability in terms of the mean and standard deviation.
Notice that , and
. In other words, 61 and 79 both lie exactly 3 standard deviations away from the mean, so
.
