Answer:
6x -7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the length of the third side. The perimeter is the sum of the three side lengths.
P = a + b + c
(17x -5) = (3x +5) +(8x -3) +c
17x -5 = 11x +2 + c . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
6x -7 = c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 11x+2
The third side is 6x -7 units.

Warning: This might be rough...
First draw it out. Label the angles at the corners of the triangle 60 (definition of equilateral triangles). Now draw a line from the center of the circle to the corner, splitting the corner in half. Label this line R and a corner as 30 degrees. No to find the height of this triangle, you do rsin(30). The base of this triangle is 2rcos(30). Now find the area of this mini triangle (rsin(30)*2rcos(30)/2=r/2*rsqrt(3)/2=r^2sqrt(3)/4). Now multiply this by 3 because you have 3 mini triangles... to get...

+8y and -8y cross out.
So the first one is 3x=15
Second one is 2x=10
x=5
Then plug x is one of the equations
2(5)-8y=10
10-8y=10
x=5
y=0
