(D) 7
(E) 8

Answers

  1. Answer:

    (B) 5

    Step-by-step explanation:
    A triangle has a perimeter of 13 and one side of
    length 3. If the lengths of the other two sides are
    equal, what is the length of each of them?
    (A) 4
    (B) 5
    (C) 6
    (D) 7
    (E) 8
    having two equal sides is isosceles, remove the known angle from the perimeter and divide by two
    (13 – 3) : 2 =
    10 : 2 = 5
    ——————–
    check
    5 + 5 + 3 = 13
    the answer is good

  2. The length of another side of the triangle will be 5 so option (B) will be correct.

    What is a triangle?

    A triangle is a 3-sided shape that is occasionally referred to as a triangle. There are three sides and three angles in every triangle, some of which may be the same.
    The sum of all three angles inside a triangle will be 180° and the area of a triangle is given as (1/2) × base × height.
    There are many types of triangles such that right-angle triangles, equilateral triangles, and much more.
    Let’s say the length of the other sides are x
    So,
    Perimeter = sum of all sides
    13 = x + x + 3
    2x + 3 = 13
    2x = 10
    x = 5
    Hence “The length of another side of the triangle will be 5 so”.
