Answer:

The sides are

6

inches,

8

inches and

10

inches

Explanation:

I'd suggest that the question should read 'The perimeter of a triangle is 24 inches. The longest side is 4 inches longer than the shortest side, and the shortest side is three-fourths the length of the middle side. How do you find the length of each side of the triangle?'

In this case the question can be answered. If

x

is the length of the middle side, then the shortest side is 3/4x and the longest side is 3/4x+4

x+3/4x+3/4x+4=24

10/4x=20

x=8

Then the shortest side is 6and the longest side is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometry, help please ! :)

The bottom rectangle is 52 ft by 27 ft.

The top rectangle is 30 ft by 17 ft (calculated as 57 ft - 27 ft - 13 ft = 17 ft).

The connector rectangle is 13 ft by 9 ft (calculated as 30 ft - 21 ft = 9 ft).

total area = 52 ft * 27 ft + 30 ft * 17 ft + 13 ft * 9 ft

total area = 1404 ft^2 + 510 ft^2 + 117 ft^2

total area = 2031 ft^2

weight = 2031 ft^2 * 12 lb/ft^2

weight = 24,372 lb
