The perimeter pf an equilateral triangle is 18 cm make an equation for x.Solve this ,and find x
All 3 sides ard equal
All 3 sides are equal:
x + x + x = 18cm,
3x = 18,
X = 6cm.
;
To find the length of each side of the equilateral triangle, we can divide the perimeter by 3.
Let's denote the length of each side as x. Therefore, the equation can be written as:
x + x + x = 18
Simplifying the equation, we get:
3x = 18
Now, we need to solve for x.
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
(3x) / 3 = 18 / 3
x = 6
So, the length of each side of the equilateral triangle is 6 cm.
