Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let length=3x
Breadth=2x
P= 2(l+b)
20=2(3x+2x)
20=2(5x)
20=10x
x=2
Therefore, length =3x=6
Breadth=2x=4

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the common factor,
∴the sides are 2x and 3x according to the ratio
perimeter of a triangle⇒20= 2(length+breadth)
according to the problem,
⇒2(2x+3x)=20
⇒2 × 5x=20
⇒10x= 20
⇒x= 20÷10
⇒x= 2
∴the sides are,
2x= 2×2
=4 cm
3x= 3×2
=6 cm
