Ketan, if we eliminate those cases where sum of 2 sides=sum of 3rd side we will get 7 only.

@sigma.
1,2,6 doesn't form a triangle.
your logic doesn't take into account this..
cause this case isn't eliminated..

@sigma...why will i eliminate those cases....
sum of two sides in a triangle can be equal to the third side....its a valid triangle...
