PolarNik [594]

Answer:

  • 7, 9, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the triangle be a, b and c.

<u>We have:</u>

  • P = a + b + c = 29
  • a = 2b - 5
  • c = b + 6

<u>Substitute values and solve for b:</u>

  • 2b - 5 + b + b + 6 = 29
  • 4b + 1 = 29
  • 4b = 28
  • b = 7

<u>Find a and c:</u>

  • a = 2*7 - 5 = 14 - 5 = 9
  • c = 7 + 6 = 13

<u>The sides are:</u> 7, 9, 13
