In a triangle with a perimeter of 34 m, the first side is 3 m shorter than the second. the third side is 4 m longer than the second. find the length of the longest side
Imagine he second side is x so the first side is (x-3) and the third side is (x+4) So x + (x-3) + (x+4) = 34 3x+1 = 34 3x=33 X=11 So longest side is (x+4) so 11+4=15 15m
