Question

the ratio of three sides of a triangle is 5:5:8 if the area of a triangle is 12 cm²then what is the length of the equal sides​

Answer 1

Answer:

side1= 7.5

side2= 7.5

side3=12

Step-by-step explanation:

let the three sides of triangle = 5x, 5x, 8x

area of a triangle= side+side+side

12= 5x+5x+8x

12= 18x

$\frac{12}{18}$=x

1.5=x

side1= 5x= 5*1.5= 7.5

side2=5x= 5*1.5= 7.5

side3= 8x= 8*1.5=12
