Ok ,for this you need to know how to find the perimeter of the triangle. Do you know what an isosceles triangle is?

anonymous · Answer

nope

anonymous · Answer

An isosceles triangle is one where the two "legs" are equal in length. You know that the total perimeter is 54 cm. If the first two sides are each 20cm, how long is the base?

idk ... :)

anonymous · Answer

take your best guess, i bet you know more than you think you do :D

anonymous · Answer

so i have to write the equation and write some random # for x and y?
