Answer 3

well,perimeter is sum of all the sides

Answer 4

so here you have 3x + 4x +5x = 54

then put value of x in the sides and find out their length

Answer 5

simple as that

Answer 6

Really?

Answer 7

Answer 8

Ok hold on, let me try work it out!

Answer 9

x = 4.5 ?

Answer 10

yep

Answer 11

Thank you so much!

Answer 12

yeah,so i guess you found out length of sides too?
good

Answer 13

3 x 4.5 = 13.5

4 x 4.5 = 18

5 x 4.5 = 22.5
