Problema Solution
The perimeter of a triangle is 51 mm. The length of the sides are represented by three consecutive integers. What are the measurements of the sides?
Answer provided by our tutors
As the sides of a triangle are consecutive..so let the three sides be
x,x+1, x+2
and we know that the perimeter of the triangle is 51
therefore, x+x+1+x+2=51
solving this, x=16
therefore sides of a triangle are 16,17,18
