ANSWER
A) 23
EXPLANATION
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides. The perimeter of triangle ABC is then:
[tex]P=AB+BC+CA[/tex]We know that P = 100 cm, AB = 45cm and BC = 32cm:
[tex]100=45+32+CA[/tex]Add 45 and 32:
[tex]100=77+CA[/tex]Subtract 77 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 100-77=77-77+CA \\ 23=CA \end{gathered}[/tex]The length of side CA is 23 cm
