उत्तर

Given that
AB = 7cm, BC = 8cm, AC = 9cm .
In ΔABC
∴ F and E are the midpoint of AB and AC
∴EF = `1/2` BC [Mid-points theorem]
Similarly
DF = `1/2` AC, DE = `1/2` AB
Perimeter of ΔDEF = DE + EF + DF
= `1/2` AB + `1/2` BC `1/2`AC
= `1/2`× 7 + `1/2` × 8 +` 1 /2`× 9
= 3.5 + 4 + 4.5 = 12cm
∴ Perimeter of ΔDEF = 12cm
