Question

the length of the sides of a triangle are integrals,and it area is also integer.One side is 21 and the perimeter is 48.Find the shortest side

Answer 1

the three lengths are 9,18 and 21

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve the problem in this way:

We can say the three sides as a, b, c

a+b+c: 48

One side is also given is 21

A+b+21: 48

A+b: 48-21: 27

We can divide it into 2 parts

As a+b: 27

Then 10+17: 27so

The shortest side is 10
