Let the ratios be 2x, 3x and 4x
perimeter of the triangle = 13.5 cm
perimeter = sum of all sides
13.5=2x+3x+4x
13.5=9x
13.5/9=x
1.5=x
thus,
2x=2×1.5
=3 cm
3x=3×1.5
=4.5 CM
4x=4×1.5
=6 CM
thus, the sides of the triangle are 3 CM, 4.5 CM and 6 CM
verification -
perimeter = sum of all sides
13.5=3+4.5+6
13.5=13.5
LHS=RHS
thus, verified

Answer:
3,4.5,6
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x+4x=13.5
9x =13.5
x=1.5
2x=1.5*2=3
3x=1.5*3=4.5
4x=1.5*4=6
