Answers
Reiny
let base be x
one other side = x-2
third side = x+3
x + x-2 + x+3 > 19
3x > 18
x > 6
test: let base be 7
one other side = 5
third side = 10
perm = 22
one other side = x-2
third side = x+3
x + x-2 + x+3 > 19
3x > 18
x > 6
test: let base be 7
one other side = 5
third side = 10
perm = 22
