Question

Two sides of a triangle are 14cm and 16cm. the perimeter of a triangle is 40cm. what is the third side?​

Answer 1

Answer:

30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

60 - 14

46 - 16

30

Answer 2

Let the first side be 14 cm

second side be 16 cm

and third side be x cm.

Perimeter of a triangle = first side + second side + third side

40 = 14 + 16 + x

40 = 30 + x

x = 40 - 30

x = 10 cm

Therefore, the third side will be 10 cm
