Prove that the ratio of the sides of a square and an equilateral triangle having
equal perimeter is 3:4
equal perimeter is 3:4
The perimeter, P, is the same in both cases.surinderdhiman wrote:Prove that the ratio of the sides of a square and an equilateral triangle having

The 4 sides of the square each have length P/4.
The 3 sides of the equilateral triangle each have length P/3.
The ratio of a the length of a square side to the length of a triangle side is (P/4)/(P/3) = 3/4.
