Ответ:
Now, with the extra 9 feet gone, you know that the three sides are equal. So, divide 54 by 3:
54/3=18 feet
The shortest sides are 18 feet and the longest side is 27 feet.
You can check by adding the lengths of the three sides together:
18+18+27
=36+27
=63
If you need to write it out as an equation, it would be 3x+9=63, where x is equal to the length of the side of the sail.
