second side = x

first side = 3x - 6

third side = (3x - 6) + 8

The perimeter = 80m and is equal x + (3x - 6) + [(3x - 6) + 8]

x + 3x - 6 + 3x - 6 + 8 = 80

7x - 4 = 80 |+4

7x = 84 |:7

x = 12 m

3x - 6 = 3(12) - 6 = 30 m

(3x - 6) + 8 = 3x + 2 = 3(12) + 2 = 38 m

Answer: 12m, 30m, 38m

Inga [223]
Pythagorean theorem = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^2 +c^2 }
Since you only have a^{2} and c^2 you change the equation to \sqrt{c^2 - a^2 = b^2}
Giving you \sqrt{153^2 - 72^2 = 135
