Answer: B
Explanation: ONE triangle can be formed.
According to the triangle inequality theorem, the sum of any two sides must be greater or equal than the length of the third side.
Here, the sides are 1 m, 2 m, and 2m. 1m + 2m = 3m > 2m (theorem followed) 2m + 2m = 4m > 1m (theorem followed)
Since, the triangle inequality theorem is followed, Hence, ONE triangle can be formed.
