A triangle with sides 5, 5 and 8 cms has an area 2/3 of it's perimeter (Physically cannot happen - area and perimeter have different dimensions.)

What other values give the same ratio . Thanks. Is it infinite

Value of what?

The measure of the sides, measure of the angles??

Ratio of what?

Ratio of Largest side of the triangle to the smallest side? Numerical value of the ratio of the perimeter to the area?Ratio of Largest angleof the triangle to the smallest angle?
