Let the longest side be x.
\n" ); document.write( "Then the other side is x/4.
\n" ); document.write( "The third side is x-11.
\n" ); document.write( "x+x/4+x-11=124
\n" ); document.write( "9x/4=135
\n" ); document.write( "x=4*135/9=540/9=60.
\n" ); document.write( "The sides of the triangle are 60 ft,15 ft and 49 ft.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
