Question

The perimeter of a triangle is 64 in. The longest side is 14 in. Longer than the medium side, and the medium side is 7 in. more than the shortest side. Find the length of each side of the triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

longest side =33

medium side =19

shortest side = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let medium side be x

then longest side =14 +x

shortest side = x-7

we know that ,

perimeter =sum of all side

or, 64 = 14+ x + x + x -7

or, 64 - 7 = 3x

or, 57 = 3x

or, 57÷3 = x

or, x = 19

then

medium side =x = 19

longest side =x+14 =33

shortest side = x- 7 = 12 #
