Question

An isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 44 feet.The base is 20 feet long.What is the length of each equal side?
pls tell​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two sides be x.

perimeter of a triangle=sum of its sides

so according to question:-

x+x+20=44

2x=44-20

2x=24

x=12feet

so,equal sides are equal to 12feet.

Answer 2

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

let one side = x

so second side will also be x

x+x+20=44

2x+20=44

2x= 44-20

2x=24

x=24/2

x=12
