The perimeter of a triangle is 52 feet. one side of the triangle is 6 feet longer than the second side. the third side is 1 foot longer than the second side. find the length of each side.

Answer The length of first side = 21 feet

The length of second side = 15 feet

The length of third side = 16 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the second sides of the triangle.

Then, the first side of the triangle will be 6+x and the third sides will be 1+x.

Since, the perimeter of a triangle is 52 feet., then have

Subtract 7 from both the sides , we get

Divide both sides by 5, we get

Now, the length of first side = 15+6=21 feet

The length of second side = 15 feet

The length of third side = 15+1 =16 feet.
