We have a triangle whose perimeter is 32 feet. Some information regarding the sides of the triangle is given:
GiveN:
- One side is 3 times the second side.
- Third side is 12 feet longer than the second side.
As we can see that, two sides of the triangle are defined the second sides. It means First and third side can be expressed in the form of second side.
- So let the second side be x
Then,
- First side = 3x
- And, third side = x + 12
We know that, perimeters is the sum of the lengths of all sides of the triangle, So it can be written as:
Solving it further,
Subtracting 12 from both sides,
Dividing 5 from both sides,
Then,
- First side = 3x = 12 feet
- Second side = 4 feet
- Third side = x + 12 = 16 feet
And we are done with the answer !!

You may notice that all of the terms have a common factor: . So, let's take the
out of all the terms. This gives us:
Using the Zero Product Property, we can say that both and
.
Let's solve both. is obvious, but we still need to solve our other term:
- Set up
- Factor
- Apply the Zero Product Property
Our answer is x = -6, 0, 4.
