The perimeter of the triangle below is 8x - 6. Q

X + 1

P.

R

3x - 1

Which expression rrepresents the length of QR ?

hel

QR = 4x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle, scalene triangle, right angled triangle.

The perimeter of a triangle is a measure of the length of the sides. It is the sum of all the length of the three sides of the triangle.

From the question:

Perimeter of triangle PQR = PQ + PR + QR

But PR = 3x - 1, PQ = x + 1, Perimeter of PQR = 8x - 6.

Therefore substituting gives:

8x - 6 = (x + 1) + (3x - 1) + QR

8x - 6 = (x + 3x + 1 - 1) + QR

8x - 6 = 4x + QR

QR = (8x - 6) - 4x

QR = 4x - 6
