The shorter side of the triangle is 18 cm and each of the longer sides are 54 cm

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that triangle has perimeter of 126 cm

Let the length of the shorter side of the triangle be "a"

The 2 longer sides are 3 times as long as the shortest side

So length of 2 longer sides = 3(length of the shorter side)

length of 2 longer sides = 3a

<em><u>The perimeter of triangle is given as:</u></em>

perimeter of triangle = length of the shorter side + length of 2 longer sides

perimeter of triangle = a + 3a + 3a

126 = a + 3a + 3a

7a = 126

a = 18

So length of shorter side = 18 cm

length of 2 longer sides are each = 3a = 3(18) = 54 cm

Thus, the shorter side of the triangle is 18 cm and each of the longer sides is 54 cm

The length of a rectangle is 2 cm less than 7 times the width. The perimeter is 60 cm. Find the width of the rectangle. HINT: Dr
klemol [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L +2W

L is the length

W is the width

If the length of a rectangle is 2 cm less than 7 times the width, then;

L = 7W-2 .... 2

Substitute eqn into the formula for finding the perimeter

P = 2(7W-2)+2W

P = 14W-4+2W

P = 16W-4

If P =60cm

60 = 16W-4

16W = 60+4

16W = 64

W = 64/16

W = 4cm

Hence the width of the rectangle is 4cm

Since l = 7w-

l = 7(4)-2

L = 28-2

L = 26cm

You can proceed and draw a rectangle with the dimension of 4cm by 26cm
