Question 1103104: triangle QRS is an equilateral triangle. If QR is seventeen more than twice x, RS is 19 less than six times x,
and QS is one less than four times x, find x and the measure of each side.
Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
QR=2x+17 and that equals 6x-19
2x+17=6x-19
4x=36
x=9
sides are 35 and 35 as they should be
check with the third one 4(9)-1=35
The sides are 35 units each. ANSWER
