The first side of a triangle is 3 m shorter than the second side the third side is 4 times as long as the first side the perimeter is 27 m find the length of each side.

First side =5 m

Second side= 2 m

Third side )=20 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the second side ( in meter) of the triangle .

Then, the first side will be x+3

And the third side will be 4(x+3).

Given : The perimeter of the triangle :  27 m

Then, we have :

Thus , the length of second side= 2 m

Length of first side = 2+3=5 m

Length of third side = 4(5)=20 m

answer: 4
