the perimeter of a triangle measures 49 cm . one side is 7 cm longer than the other and 5 cm shorter than the third. find the length of each side of the triangle |
Answer» Answer :• Sides of ∆ are 10 cm , 17 cm and 22 cm___________________________Given :• Perimeter of ∆ = 49 cm • One side is longer by 7 cm • Other side is shorter by 5 cm To Find :• Each side of triangle Solution :• Let the side of ∆ be x • According to the question :→ x + x - 7 + x + 5 = 49 → 3x = 49 + 2 → 3x = 51 → x = 51/3 → x = 17• First side of ∆ = 17 cm • Second side of ∆ = x - 7 = 17 - 7 = 10 cm • Third side of ∆ = x + 5 = 17 + 5 = 22 cm _____________________ |
