The perimeter of a triangle is 93 centimeters. If two sides are equally long and the third side in 9 centimeters longer than the others, find the lengths of the three sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So far this is what I get out of the word problem\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a+b+c=93
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "That's a start.
\n" ); document.write( "2 sides are equal, a and b, so 2a+c = 93
\n" ); document.write( "The 3rd side is 9, so
\n" ); document.write( "2a + 9 = 93
\n" ); document.write( "2a = 84
\n" ); document.write( "a = b = 42
\n" ); document.write( "42, 42, 9
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
