Answer:

The length of the sides are 42m, 31.5m and 24.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a plain shape can be computed by adding all the sides of the plain shape.

For a triangle, the perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides.

Let the length of the shortest side be x

The longest side = 2x - 7 meters

The middle side = x +7 meters

Therefore,

2x - 7 +x - 7 + x = 84

4x = 84 + 14

4x = 98

x = 24.5 meters

The longest side = 2(24.5) - 7 = 42 meters

The middle side = 24.5 + 7 = 31.5 meters

The length of the sides are 42m, 31.5m and 24.5m

45/45/90 triangle has side ratios s/s/sroot2
leg = root 5
Other leg is also root 5
X is Hypotenuse which would be root 5 * root 2
root 5*2 = root 10

The hinge theorem states that if two triangles have equivalent side lengths but different angles, the triangle with the larger angle is going to have a longer opposing side.

UVT < UTS < STR

That means that VU < US < SR, due to the hinge theorem
