What is the perimeter of a triangle with sides 5 and 3 that has the maximum possible area? Choose the correct option:	A) 8 + √34	B) 7 + √26	C) 12	D) 8 + 3√5	E) 8 + 3√6
We can maximize the area of the triangle by making these two sides the base and the height of a right angle triangle. Then the third side is the hypotenuse with a length of √(25+9)=
