A scalene triangle where all sides are different lengths. The base of the triangle, labeled 3 a, is three times that of the shortest side, a. The other side is labeled b.

Which equation can be used to find the value of b if side a measures 8.7 cm?

8.7 plus b equals 54.6
17.4 plus b equals 54.6
26.1 plus b equals 54.6
34.8 plus b equals 54.6

Answer:

8.7 plus b equals 54.6

Step-by-step explanation:

4(8.7) + b = 54.6.

b = 19.8 cm.

The sum of the sides = the perimeter = 3a + a + b = 54.6.  

Now a = 8.7, so:

3(8.7) + 8.7 + b = 54.6

4(8.7) + b = 54.6.

b = 54.6 - 4(8.7)

b = 19.8.
