The sides of a triangle are consecutive integers. If the perimeter of the triangle is 192 cm, how do you find the length?
1 Answer
63, 64, 65
Explanation:
If one side's length is x then the 3 consecutive sides are: x, (x + 1) and (x + 2). We get:
x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 192
3x + 3 = 192
3x = 189
x = 63
Answers: 63, 64, and 65
