Question

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 42 cm and its base is �32 � times each of the equal sides. Find the length of each side of the triangle, area of the triangle and the height of the triangle.

Answer 1

perimeter of triangle = sum of all sides

so let the equal sides be x

the base is 32 times the equal side that means it is 32(x)

32x+ x+x= 42

34x=42

x= 42/34
