Given:
- Perimeter of a triangle = 60cm
- Length of side a = 18cm
- Length of side b = 22cm
To find:
- Length of side c?
Solution:
• Let's consider ABC is a triangle.
Where,
Length of side a = 18cm
Length of side b = 22cm
Length of side c = x
• Let length of side c be x.

★ Given :
Triangle has a perimeter of 60 CM if two sides are of length 18 centimetre and 22 cm.
★ To Find :
The length of Third Side
★ Solution :
Let the third Side be x
Perimeter = a + b + c
➤ 18 + 22 + x = 60
➤ 40 + x = 60
➤ x = 60 - 40
➤ x = 20
__________________
Now, putting the value of x
➥ 18 + 22 + 20 = 60
➥ 40 + 20 = 60
➥ 60 = 60
Hence Verified ✔
