One side of a triangle is twice as long as the second side. The remaining side is 4 centimeters greater than the second side. The perimeter of the triangle is 24 centimeters. Find the length of each side of the triangle
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "2nd side: x
\n" ); document.write( "1st side: 2x
\n" ); document.write( "3rd side:: 2x+4
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x + 2x + 2x+4 = 24
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 20
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 cm (2nd side)
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 8 cm (1st side)
\n" ); document.write( "2x+4 = 12 cm (3rd side)
