Question

The sides of the triangle are in ratio 2:3:4 and its perimeter is 63 cm. find the lengths of the sides

Answer 1

Here the sides are 2x 3x and 4x. Now since perimeter is 63cm so length of all sides is 63cm.

So we get the equation

2x+3x+4x= 63

9x= 63

x=7cm.

So the sides are 14cm, 21cm, 28cm.

Answer 2

Hello Dear!!!

Here's your answer....

Given that,

Sides are in the ratio 2:3:4

Perimeter is 63.

We know that,

Sum of all sides of a triangle gives the perimeter....

So,

Let the sides be

2x , 3x and 4x

2x+ 3x +4x = 63

9x = 63

x = 63/9

x = 7.

Then,

sides are

2x = 2(7) = 14cm

3x = 3(7) = 21cm

4x = 4(7) = 28cm.
