Answer:

GIVEN:

ABC an isosceles triangle, AB=AC. So angle B = angle C. Base BC = 24cm,  

TO FIND:

The perimeter(AB + BC + AC) =?  

CONSTRUCTION:

AM perpendicular to BC.

Since triangle AMB is congruent to triangle AMC( by RHS congruence criterion)  

So, M is the mid point of BC. So, BM = 12cm

Since area(triangle ABC) = 1/2 * BC * AM

=> ar(tri ABC) = 1/2 * 24 * AM = 192

=> AM = 192/ 12 = 16cm.

Now in right triangle AMB  

AB² = AM² + BM²  

=> AB² = 16² + 12²  

=> AB² = 256 + 144 = 400

=> AB = √400 = 20cm

So, AC = 20cm

So, perimeter = 20+20+24 = 64cm
