    The length of the third side is between 16 inches and 64 inches.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The length of a side of a triangle is between the sum and the difference of the lengths of the other two sides.

    First, we need both sides in the same units. Let's convert feet to inches.

    2 ft * (12 in.) / (ft) = 24 in.

    The sides measure 24 inches and 40 inches.

    Now we add and subtract the two lengths.

    40 in. + 24 in. = 64 in.

    40 in. - 24 in. = 16 in.

    The length of the third side is between 16 inches and 64 inches.
