a) Since we know they have equal perimeters, we can set them equal to each other. First, let's recap the perimeters of squares and triangles (s = side):
![P_s = 4s/tex] [tex]P_t = 3s=s+s+s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P_s%20%3D%204s%2Ftex%5D%20%5Btex%5DP_t%20%3D%203s%3Ds%2Bs%2Bs)
Now, we can set up our equation:
We can solve for x:
So, x = 10.
b) We known the perimeter formulas and we have what x is. So, let's just plug and chug.
Square:
So, the perimeter of the square is 28 units².
Since their perimeters are equal the perimeter of the triangle is also 28 units²
