Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

For the largest possible whole number length, this means it would have to be the longest side. Let's let this third side have a length of x.

By the triangle inequality theorem, 19+18>x, which means x<37.

So, the largest possible whole number length for the third side is 36.
