Answer:
3cm, 6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let initial smaller side be x and bigger side be y
X²+y²= (3 root 5 cm )²(Pythagoras theorem)
X²+y²= 45 - - - - 1)
Now it's said smaller side is tripled and larger is doubled
So,
(3x)²+(2y)²=15²
9x²+4y²=225 - - - (2)
Multiplying (1) by 4
4x²+4y²=180
(2)-(1)
5x²=45
X²=9
X= ±3
It will be +3 here as it is side of triangle
3²+y²=45
9+y²=45
Y²=36
Y=6
The sides are 3 cm and 6 cm
