Answer:

X= 3

Y= 18

Each side of the triangle= 10 units

Explanation:

LMN is equilateral so

LM = MN

3x+1= 4x-2

3x-4x = -2-1

-x = -3

X= 3

MP is the perpendicular bisector of line LN

so definitely angle lpm =90.

And lpm = 5y = 90

5y = 90

Y= 90/5

Y = 18°

For the side of the triangle

3x+1

But x= 3

3(3)+1

9+1

10

Each side of the triangle= 10 units
