The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Which equation can be used to find the side lengths if the longest side measures 6.2 cm? A scalene triangle where all sides are of different lengths. The base of the triangle is labeled 2a, is twice that of the shortest side labeled a. The other side is labeled b.

9.3 + b = 14.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are learning about perimeter.

Look for the formula of the perimeter,

P = a + b + c

The question states "The longest side is twice that of the shortest side."

A is the longest side while b is the shortest side.

The shortest side equation would be found below :

6.2 = 2c

c = 3.1

Making a completion of the longest side :

14.5 = 6.2 + 3.1 + b

14.5 + 9.3 + b

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
