Question

The side links of a triangle are 3 m, 4 m common 5 m. Suppose the side links are multiplied by four. Describe the change in perimeter

Answer 1

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given that :

Side links are : 3m, 4m, 5m

The perimeter of a triangle = (a + b + c)

Perimeter 1= (3 + 4 + 5) = 12m

If the side links are multiplied by 4 :

3*4 = 12 m

4*4 = 16m

5*4 = 20m

Perimeter2 = (12 + 16 + 20) = 48 m

Comparing the perimeters:

Perimeter 1 = perimeter 2

12 = 48

Hence, perimeter also increases by 4 folds
