Question

The side of a triangle
a triangle are in the notion 3:3:4. In the. shortest side measured 6cm, what is the perimeter of theA triangle?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given :-

Ratio of the sides of triangle =  2 : 3 : 4

Measure of smallest side = 6 cm

To Find :-

Perimeter of the triangle

Formula to be used :-

Perimeter of triangle = Sum of all three sides.

Solution :-

Let the sides of a triangle be 2x, 3x and 4x

According to the Question

Smallest side is = 6 cm  

Then,

⇒ 2x = 6

⇒ x = 6/2

⇒ x = 3

Putting x value in all sides, we get

⇒ Perimeter of triangle = Sum of Sides

⇒ Perimeter of triangle = 2x + 3x + 4x

⇒ Perimeter of triangle = 2 × 3 + 3 × 3 + 4 × 3

⇒ Perimeter of triangle = 6 + 9 + 12

⇒ Perimeter of triangle = 27 cm

Hence, the perimeter of the triangle is 27 cm.
