\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "let x be the length of3rd side
\n" ); document.write( "x+3 = 2nd side
\n" ); document.write( "x+6 = 1st side\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + (3+x) + (x+6) = 36\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x + 9 = 36
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 27
\n" ); document.write( "x = 9\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3rd side is 9 ft long.
\n" ); document.write( "1st side is 9+6 = 15 ft long
\n" ); document.write( "2nd side is 9+3 = 12 ft long.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For these side lengths, the triangle inequalities are valid, so such triangle does exist.\r
