Question 362132: solve.
the perimeter of a triangle is 93ft.side a of the triangle is twice as long as side b. side c is 3 ft longer than side a. find the length of each side. Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A=2B OR B=A/2
C=A+3
A+B+C=93
A+A/2+A+3=93
2.5A=93-3
2.5A=90
A=90/2.5
A=36 ANS. FOR SIDE A.
B=36/2=18 ANS. FOR SIDE B.
C=36+3=39 ANS. FOR SIDE C.
PROOF:
36+18+39=93
93=93
