Question 570613: this is a problem that my teacher gave me and no matter how I look at it it doesn't make any sense
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 9 inches more than the perimeter of a square, and the side of the triangle is 6 inches longer than the side of the square. Find the side of the triangle. (Hint: An equilateral triangle has three sides the same length.) Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! "the side of the triangle is 6 inches longer than the side of the square" ___ t = s + 6 ___ t - 6 = s
"The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 9 inches more than the perimeter of a square"
___ 3t = 4s + 9
