  1. Answer:

    Let first side of triangle = x

    second side of triangle = x+8

    Third side of triangle = x-4

    x+(x+8)+(x-4) =180

    3x+4 = 180

    3x = 180-4

    3x = 176

    x = 176/3

    first side of triangle =176/3

    second side of triangle = 176/3 + 8

    = 200/3

    Third side of triangle = 176/3 – 4

    = 164/3

    Thanks for asking this question
