Answer 1

Answer:

12 cm, 16 cm and 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3 × side

48 = 3×side

side = 48 ÷ 3

side = 16 cm answer

Perimeter of regular hexagon = 6×side

48 = 6×side

side = 48 ÷ 6

side = 8 cm answer

Perimeter of Square= 4×side

48= 4×side

Side= 48÷4

Side= 12cm

Hence, The length of each side in square, equilateral triangle and a regular hexagon will be 12 cm, 16 cm and 8 cm respectively.
