The perimeter of the MKP triangle is 48 cm. The MK side is 14 cm, the KP side is 7cm larger than the MK side. Find the length of the MP side.

1) We find out how long the side KP of the MKP triangle has, if it is known that it is 7 cm longer than the MK side, and the MK side has a length of 14 cm.

14 + 7 = 21 cm.

2) Find out what is the sum of the two sides of the MKP triangle, if it is known that the MK side is 14 cm long, and the KP side is 21 cm long.

14 + 21 = 35 cm.

3) Let’s find out what is the length of the third side of the MKP triangle, if its perimeter is 48 cm, and the sum of the first two sides is 35 cm.

48 – 35 = 13 cm.

Answer: The length of the third side of the MP was 13 cm.
