Question

Calculate the third side of a triangle if the perimeter is 124 1/4 feet and two of the sides measure 36 3/4 feet each.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter= 124 1/4

sides= 36 3/4 ( 2 sides )

third side =?

perimeter=sum of all sides

124 1/4= 36 3/4 + 36 3/4 + x

x= 124 1/4 - 36 3/4 +36 3/4

x = 495/4 - 294 4

x = 50.25

Answer 2

perimeter= 124 1/4

sides= 36 3/4 ( 2 sides )

third side =?

perimeter=sum of all sides

124 1/4= 36 3/4 + 36 3/4 + x

x= 124 1/4 - 36 3/4 +36 3/4

x = 495/4 - 294 4

x = 50.25
