Step-by-step explanation:
third side = X
then
the 2 equal sides of an isoceles triangle=3X-4
THE PERIMETER OF A TRI ANGLE =SUM OF ALL OF ALL SIDES
3x-4+3x-4+x=55
7x-8=55
7x=63
x=9
and the other 2 equal sides =3×9-4
= 23

Given :
- Two equal sides of a triangle are each 4m less than three times the third side
- The perimeter of triangle is 55 m
Assumption :
Let ,
The third side of triangle be x
Then , The measures of two equal sides of triangle = 3x - 4
Solution :
We know that , the perimeter of triangle is given by
Thus ,
55 = (3x - 4) + (3x - 4) + x
55 = 7x - 8
7x = 63
x = 63/7
x = 9
