The length of the third side is x+5

Perimeter of a triangle

A triangle is a shape that has 3 sides and angles. Given the sides of the triangles 2x+4 and 3x -1

Perimeter of triangle = s1 + s2 + s3

Given the following

Perimeter = 6x + 8

s1 = 2x + 4
s2 = 3x - 1

Substitute

6x+8 = 2x+4+3x-1+s3
6x+8 = 5x+3+s3
s3 = 6x-5x+8-3
s3 = x + 5

Hence the length of the third side is x+5
