Question

Find the length of each side of an equilateral triangle with perimeter 36 inches.Provide your answer below:inches4

Answer 1

`12`

1) Given that an equilateral triangle has three congruent sides, so we can tell that each side has the following measurement:

`\begin{gathered} P_(\Delta)=l+l+l\Rightarrow P_(\Delta)=3l \\ 3l=36 \\ (3l)/(3)=(36)/(3) \\ l=12`

Note that since they are congruent then we can tell that.
