Question

the perimeter of a triangle is 600m. if the ratio of its sides is 12:13:15 then find the longest side​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\large{\underline{\boxed{\sf Longest \: side = 225 \: m}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the triangle be 12x, 13x and 15x respectively.

We know that,

Perimeter of rectangle is the sum of all its sides.

⇒ 12x + 13x + 15x = 600

⇒ 40x = 600

⇒ x = $\sf \dfrac{600}{40}$

⇒ x = 15

Therefore, sides of the triangle are ;

• 12x = 12 * 15 = 180 m
• 13x = 13 * 15 = 195 m
• 15x = 15 * 15 = 225 m

Hence, the length of the longest side of triangle is 225m.
