The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 2: 3: 4 What is the perimeter of a triangle if the difference between the largest and smallest sides is 6 cm

1. One part in the ratio of the lengths of the sides of the triangle is x centimeters.

2. One side is 2 centimeters.

3. Another 3 centimeters.

4. The third is 4 centimeters.

5. What is the difference between the largest and smallest sides?

4x – 2x = 2x centimeters.

6. Find one part of the length of the sides.

2x = 6;

x = 6/2 = 3;

7. Find out the perimeter of the triangle.

2x + 3x + 4x = 2 * 3 + 3 * 3 + 4 * 3 = 27 centimeters.

Answer: 27 centimeters.
