Question

the sides of a triangle are in the ratio 2:3:3,and the perimeter of the triangle is 88 cm what are the lengths of its sides

Answer 1

ratio of sides to 2:3:3
perimeter is 88cm
2=2x
3=3x
3=3x
perimeter =sum of all sides
88=2x+3x+3x
88cm=8x
x=88/8=11cm
sides are
2x=2*11=22cm
3x=3*11=33cm
3x=3*11=33cm

Answer 2

let the ratio be x..
then 2x+3x+3x=88
8x = 88
x = 88÷8 = 11.
then sides are
2x = 2×11 = 22
3x = 3×11 =33
3x = 3×11 = 33....ans
