Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Measure of three sides of a triangle are consecutive integers.
Perimeter of triangle is 72 cm.
To Find:
What is measure of each side of triangle ?
Solution: Let the first integer be x , second be x + 1 , third be x + 2. Therefore,
➟ First side = x cm
➟ Second side = (x + 1) cm
➟ Third sides = (x + 2) cm
As we know that
★ Perimeter of ∆ = Sum of all sides ★
A/q
Perimeter is 72 cm
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 72 – 3
3x = 69
x = 69/3
x = 23
Hence, Sides of triangle are
➭ First side = x = 23 cm
➭ Second side = x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24 cm
➭ Third side = x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25 cm

=> 23 + 24 + 25 = 72
=> 47 + 25 = 72
=> 72 = 72
