Question -

The base of an isosceles triangle is 4/3 cm. The perimeter of the triangle is   cm. What is the length of either of the remaining equal sides?



Answer -

Base of isosceles triangle = 4/3 cm
Perimeter of triangle = image cm = 62/15
Let the length of equal sides of triangle be x.
According to the question,
4/3 + x + x = 62/15 cm
⇒ 2x = (62/15 – 4/3) cm
⇒ 2x = (62 – 20)/15 cm
⇒ 2x = 42/15 cm
⇒ x = (42/30) × (½)
⇒ x = 42/30 cm
⇒ x = 7/5 cm
The length of either of the remaining equal sides are 7/5 cm.
