Let the side of the triangle = a cm
So, s =  \frac{3a}{2}

But the radius of the incircle, r = \frac{\Delta}{s}   Where Δ = Area of the triangle and s = semi-perimeter

7 = \frac{ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{4} a^2 }{ \frac{3a}{2} }

7 = \frac{ \sqrt{3}a^2 }{2*3a}

7 = \frac{ \sqrt{3}a}{6}

a = \frac{42}{ \sqrt{3} }

a = \frac{42 \sqrt{3}}{3 } = 14 \sqrt{3}

Perimeter of triangle, 3a = 3*14 \sqrt{3} = 42 \sqrt{3}

Perimeter of triangle = 42(1.73) = 72.66 cm
