Given:

Sides of a triangle are x cm, x+2 cm, and x+4 cm.

Perimeter of triangle is 51 cm.

To find:

The the length of the longest side of the triangle.

Solution:

Sides of a triangle are x cm, x+2 cm, x+4 cm and perimeter of the triangle is 51 cm.

Perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all sides of the triangle.

x+(x+2)+(x+4)=51

3x+6=51

3x=51-6

3x=45

Divide both sides by 3.

x=15

Now, length of sides of the triangle are

x=15\text{ cm}

x+2=15+2=17\text{ cm}

x+4=15+4=19\text{ cm}

Therefore, the length of longest side of the triangle is 19 cm.
