Question

The sides of a triangle are in the ratio, 1:1.5:2 and its perimeter is 18 cm. Find the length of each side. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sides of a triangle are in the ratios 1:1.5:2

now,

perimeter is 18 cm

To find,

length of each side

now,

let the ratio be in terms  of x

solution

sides of triangle are x, 1.5x, 2x

perimeter = x + 1.5x + 2x

                = 4.5x

given perimeter = 18

therefore 4.5x = 18

===> x = 4

1.5x = 6

2x = 9
