A flower bed is in the shape of a triangle with one side twice the length of the shortest? side, and the third side is 1616 feet more than the length of the shortest side. find the dimensions if the perimeter is 184 feet.

Respuesta :

assuming the 3rd side is actually 16 feet longer, not 1616 feet

 let short side = x

2nd side will be 2x

3rd side will be x+16

x+2x+x=16 = 181

4x+16 =181

4x = 165

x=41.25

2x= 82.5

x+16 = 57.25


41.25+82.5+57.25 = 181
