Answer:
if the perimeter of the triangle is 27 cm ,find the length of each side. The sides of the triangle are in the ratio 2: 3: 4 which mean 2 + 3 + 4 = 9. The perimeter of the triangle = 27 cm. The lengths of the sides are 6cm , 6cm and 12cm.
Given :-
• The side of the triangle are in the ratio is 2: 3 : 4
• The perimeter of the triangle is 27 cm
To find :-
• The value of each side
Solution :-
⟹ The first side of triangle be 2x
⟹ The second side of triangle be 3x
⟹ The third side of triangle be 4x
⟹ The sum of all sides of a triangle= Perimeter of triangle
So ,
⟹ 2x + 3x + 4x = 27
⟹ 9x = 27
Therefore , the required sides of triangle are :-
★ First side
⟹ The first side of triangle = 2x
⟹ The first side of triangle = 2 × 3 [ Put value of x]
⟹ The first side of triangle = 6
★ Second side
⟹ The second side of triangle = 3x
⟹ The second side of triangle = 3 × 3 [ Put value of x]
⟹ The second side of triangle = 9
★ Third side
⟹ The third side of triangle = 4x
⟹ The third side of triangle = 4× 3 [ Put value of x]
⟹ The third side of triangle = 12
Therefore the each side of triangle is 6 cm , 9 cm , 12 cm
★ Verification
⟹ 2x + 3x + 4x = 27
Now let's put x as 3
⟹ 2 ( 3 ) + 3 ( 3 ) + 4 ( 3 ) = 27
⟹ 6 + 9 + 12 = 27
⟹ 27 = 27
Hence verified
Hope it helps you
