Assume the first piece to be x met. Then the second = 3x and the third =12x . Together, x + 3x + 12x = 64 or 16x = 64 or x= 4 met. The three pieces, therefore, are 4m, 12m and 48 m

What is the answer for the triangle 12 cm?
It depends on two things. First, one length, by itself, does not define a triangle. And second, it depends on what the question about the triangle is!

What is the length from first base to third base?
There is 90 feet between each base. So running from 1st to 3rd would equal 180 feet (90 to second, then 90 to third).
Perimeter is equalto length plus width is a dimentionally correct?
Yes, your statement is dimensionally correct. But your formula is incorrect, and possibly ambiguous. First, the perimeter is only a simple sum involving length and width IF the figure is a rectangle. Second, the perimeter of the rectangle is double what you have stated: P = 2L + 2W
How do you calculate how many pieces of 12mm make one ton?
You first need to find out what the pieces are. 12 mm is a measure of length. Length, by itself cannot be converted to an equivalent mass.
A 28 inch board cut into 3 pieces second piece is twice as long as first piece and the third piece is 4 times as long as first piece what is the length of all 3 pieces?
28=A+B+c b=2A c=4A subst. a=4 b=8 c=16
What is the formula for perimeter of a tiragle?
Perimeter of a triangle = (length of the first side) plus (length of the second side) plus (length of the third side)
How would you write an equation for the following. A 21-foot beam is to be cut into three pieces so that the second is triple the length of the first and the other piece is 1 foot longer than the 1s?
3x + 12 + x = 21
What is formula of finding the perimeter of a triangle?
Perimeter of a triangle = (length of the first side) plus (length of the second side) plus (length of the third side)
Are all the lines the same length in a limerick?
No. The first, second and fifth lines are of similar length whilst the third and fourth are of a similar, shorter length.
A 12 foot rope is cut into two pieces so that one piece is 3 feet less than twice the length of the other piece how long is each piece?
I think 9 and 3... no, its 5 and 7.

How can you find out speed of sound with help of a resonance tube?
With a fork of known frequency, the first resonating length is found. Then by lowering down the level of water in the resonance column tube the second resonating length is found. This secondlength will be approximately three times the first resonating length Now using the following formula one can calcualte the speed of sound. Speed of sound = 2 x frequency x (Second length - first length)
What is the scale factor of 0.8?
When two similar shapes have a scale factor of 0.8, every length of the second is 0.8 times the corresponding length of the first.
