Question

the sides of a triangle are in the ratios of 2:3:7 if the perimeter of the triangleis 36 cm, find out the length of each side of the Triangle
answer is 8cm, 12cm, 16cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the sides be = 2x,3x,7x

‎ ‎

$\color{black}\boxed{\colorbox{saffron}{Perimeter=sum\:of\:sides}}$

= 2x+3x+7x= 36

=12x=36

=x= 36÷12

=x=3

‎ ‎

‎ ‎

So, sides are -

$\rightarrow$$\bold{3x=3×3=9cm}$

$\rightarrow$$\bold{2×3=6cm}$

$\rightarrow$$\bold{7×3=21cm}$

Answer 2

Let the sides of the triangle be 2x , 3x , 7x

Perimater of triangle = 36

Perimater of triangle = 2x + 3x + 7x --> 12x

So ,

36 = 12x

x = 36/12

x = 3

Sides of triangle are :

2x --> 2×3 --> 6cm

3x --> 3×3 --> 9cm

7x --> 7×3 --> 21cm

I hope it helps u dear friend ^_^♡♡
