The lengths of the three sides of a triangle (in feet) are consecutive even integers. If the perimeter is 60 feet, find the value of the shortest of the three side lengths.

Step-by-step explanation:3 consecutive even integer numbers :xx + 2x + 4their sum is the perimeter : 60 ft. x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 603x + 6 = 603x = 54x = 18the shortest of the 3 sides is 18 ft.and then we have the other 2 sides with 20 and 22 ft.
