Answer:

The length of the missing side is 7x-5

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of the missing length

Mathematically, the perimeter of a triangle can be obtained by adding the lengths of its sides

So by subtracting the sum of the lengths of the two given sides from that of the perimeter, we get the length of the third side of the triangle

mathematically, we have this as;

13x-7 -(4x + 2 + 2x-4)

13x-7 - (4x + 2x + 2-4)

= 13x-7 - (6x -2)

= 13x -7 -6x + 2

= 13x-6x -7 + 2

= 7x -5
