Question

two equal sides of a an issosceles triangle are (3x-1 ) units and (2x -2 ) units .The third side of the triangle is 2x units . Find x and perimeter of the triangle​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equal sides = (3x-1)units and (2x-2)units

Third side= 2x units

Therefore,

3x-1 = 2x-2

3x-2x=-2+1

x=-1

first side = 2(-1)-2 = -4units

second side= 3(-1)-1 = -4 units

third side = 2(-1) = -2 units

Perimeter of triangle = side1+side2+side3

Therefore,

(-4)+(-4)+(-2)= 10units
