Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side of the isosceles triangle be x
GIVEN
3/2 x +x +x=42cm
3x/2 + 2x =42
(3x+4x)/2=42
3x+4x=84
7x=84
x=12cm
side=12cm base=18cm
The height(altitude) of an isos. triangle divides it into two rt triangles
in a rt. triangle, base²+height²=hypotenuse²
thus, 9²+h²=12²
h=√12²-9²
=√144-81 =√63 =3√7cm
area =1/2 x base x height
=1/2 x 18 x3√7
27√7 cm²
