The side of the equilateral triangle are given in cm.3x+2,2y-x,y+3
\n" ); document.write( "2y-x = y+3
\n" ); document.write( "y-3 = x
\n" ); document.write( "3(y-3) +2= y+3
\n" ); document.write( "2y = 10
\n" ); document.write( " y = 5cm and x = 2cm
\n" ); document.write( "Checking:
\n" ); document.write( "6 +2 = 10-2=5+3 = 8cm checks
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
