Question

The three sides of a triangle are in the ratio 1:1.5:2.if the greatest side is 8cm,find the other two sides

Answer 1

Answer:

4,6

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of sides = 1:1.5:2

greatest side = 8cm

side having the greatest ratio will be the greatest so

2x = 8 => x = 4

other two sides are

x = 4cm & 1.5x = 1.5 × 4 = 6cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1:1.5:2=2:3:4

So greatest side is also at 4 ratio

So sides are following

1st side is = 8/4 × 3 = 6cm

2nd side is = 8/4 × 2 = 4cm

So other sides are 6cm and 4cm
