Make a table of length of the side of an equilateral triangle and its perimeter by taking four different lengths and draw the side-perimeter graph. From the graph, read the following:
(1) perimeter, when the side is 2.5 units.
(2) length of side, when perimeter is 10.5 units.

sorry I will not help you
A table of length of the side of an equilateral triangle and its perimeter by taking four different lengths is as follows.
An equilateral triangle is one that has all 3 sides of equal length ⇒ a=a=a
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 3 times the sides ⇒ P = 3a
Table:
Length of the side Perimeter
2.5 7.5
5.5 16.5
7.5 22.5
10.5 31.5
The side-perimeter graph is attached below.
(1) perimeter, when the side is 2.5 units.
P = 3a
= 3 × 2.5
= 7.5 units
(2) length of side, when perimeter is 10.5 units.
P = 3a
10.5 = 3a
a = 10.5 / 3 = 3.5 units
