Question : what is the perimeter of the triangle?
Statement 1: Three times the base is 3 more than the height.
3b = 3+h
but we need one more equation to calculate the values of base and heights along with the third side of this right triangle
P.S. The given triangle is a right triangle because base and height of a triangle are always perpendicular to each other
Not sufficient
Statement 2: The average of the base and height is 8.5.
i.e. b+h = 8.5*2 = 17
but we need one more equation to calculate the values of base and heights along with the third side of this right triangle
NOT SUFFICIENT
Combining the two statetements
we have two equations and two variables so base and height can be calculated and afterwards teh hypotenuse as well hence
SUFFICIENT
