Question 746797: the perimeter of a triangle is 34. find the side lenghts of the triangle. the hypotenuse is x+3, the base is 3x-9 and the height is x
thank you :) Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Perimeter is a total of the 3 sides
(x + 3) + (3x - 9) + x
5x - 6 = 34
5x = 40
x = 8
base = 15
hypotenuse = 11
height = 8
