Question

the length of the smaller side of a triangle is 5 units less than the other side while the length of the largest side is 2 more than twice its other side write the expression to represent the perimeter of the triangle​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the side of triangle be x,x-5,2x+2

perimeter of triangle = x+x-5+2x+2

= 4x-3

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

• other side of smaller = x
• length of smaller = x-5
• other side of larger = x
• length of larger = 2x

we know,

perimeter of triangle = sum of sides of triangle

= x + (x -5) + x + 2x

= 5x - 5

= 5(x-1)
