Let the non congruent side of the given isosceles triangle be x m
As per the first condition,
The length of the congruent sides is (2x +4) m
As per the second condition
Perimeter= 48m
i.e 2(length of congruent side) + length of non congruent side = 48
i.e 2(2x +4) + x= 48
i.e. 4x +8 + x= 48
i.e. 5x = 40
So x= 8 m
2x +4= 2(8) +4= 16+4=20 m
So the dimensions of the given triangle are as follows:
length of congruent sides= 20m
length of non congruent side= 8 m
