Hello,
PLease, see the attached file.
Thanks.
One approach that might be a great help would be if you would look
at the choices ... those things at the bottom of the question that you
didn't give us.
-- One leg is 3 times the length of the other leg.
-- Any right triangle that has one leg three times as long as the other
leg is similar to this triangle.
I'll bet that if you look through the choices, you'll find one there.
X = smallest; x + 2 = middle, and x + 4 = largest
x + 2(x+2) = 20 + x + 4
x + 2x + 4=24 +x
3x + 4 = 24 + x
2x = 20
x = 10
so the three integers are 10, 12, and 14

Answer:
(a) 26 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The left-side vertical line extends from y = -3 to y = +3, so is 3-(-3) = 6 units long.
The bottom side horizontal line extends from x = -5 to x = 2, so is 2 -(-5) - 7 units long.
The sum of these two sides is 6 + 7 = 13 units. These two sides make up half of the perimeter, which is the total length of all four sides.
The perimeter is 2 × 13 units = 26 units.
