Question

If the sides of a triangle are in the ratio 3:4:5 and its perimeter is 480m. Find the length of its smallest side?

Answer 1

Answer:the length of smallest side is 120m

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter =480m

Dimensions =3:4:5=3x,4x,5x

3x+4x+5x=480

12x=480

x=480/12

x=40

Dimensions =

3x=40*3=120m

4x=40*4=160m

5x=40*5=200m

The length of the smallest side =120m
