if each side of a triangle is doubled then how many times the perimeter of a triangle will be increased?
Answers
Question:-
If each side of a triangle is doubled then how many times the perimeter of a triangle will be increased?
Answer:-
The perimeter is increased by 2 times.The Perimeter is doubled.
Explanation:-
Let us assume 1,2 and 3 as three sides of a triangle.
Perimeter of a Triangle = a + b + c
⟹ a + b + c
⟹ 1 + 2 + 3
⟹ 6
⟹ 6cm_____(1)
When it is doubled,
The three sides will be 2,4 and 6.
Perimeter of a Triangle = a + b + c
⟹ a + b + c
⟹ 2 + 4 + 6
⟹ 12
⟹ 12cm_____(2)
Eq(1) is doubled to Eq(2).
The First perimeter is doubled to the Second Perimeter.
Hence,
It is proved.
➝ If each side of a triangle is doubled,then the perimeter is increased by two times.
➝ If each side of a triangle is doubled,then the perimeter of the triangle is also doubled.
QU€STION:
if each side of a triangle is doubled then how many times the perimeter of a triangle will be increased?
ANSW€R:
Let initially Perimeter be
P=a+b+c, where a, b and c are the sides of the triangle
Now, each side is doubled, therefore new perimeter
P'=2a+2b+2c=2(a+b+c)=2P
