The triangle and square shown below have the same perimeter. what is the length of one side of the square

If this is the problem that I think this is, than just do this:

3x+4x+5x=4(x+2)
12x=4x+8
-4x
_________
8x=8
x=1

Well I’m also very confused on this problem also...

The triangle and square shown below have the same perimeter what is the length of one side of the square.answer and show work

To determine the length of one side of the square, let's first understand what it means for two shapes to have the same perimeter. The perimeter of a shape is the total length of its boundaries or the distance around it.

In this case, we have a triangle and a square with the same perimeter. Let's say the triangle has sides of lengths a, b, and c, and the square has sides of length s.

The perimeter of the triangle is given by the sum of its sides, so P_triangle = a + b + c.

The perimeter of the square is given by the sum of all its sides, so P_square = 4s.

From the problem statement, it is mentioned that P_triangle = P_square. Therefore, we have the equation:

a + b + c = 4s

Now, without more information on the triangle or its sides, it is not possible to determine the exact length of one side of the square. We have more than one variable in the equation (a, b, c, and s), and we would need additional information or constraints to solve for a unique value.

However, if you are provided with more information about the triangle, such as the lengths of its sides, we can substitute those values into the equation and solve for s (the length of one side of the square).

why, yes you are

We have no access to the figure.
