OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (nikato):

If 2 sides are equal, isn't it an isosceles triangle? And what do we know about isosceles triangle

OpenStudy (nikato):

Angles*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 side are equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that they have the same measurment

OpenStudy (nikato):

So u can set up an equation where a side equals the other side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

think of 2z-15 and what it has to equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7

OpenStudy (nikato):

No, the other side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im clueless

OpenStudy (nikato):

The included side is never the side that is equal

OpenStudy (nikato):

So now u have 2z-15=9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2z-15=9 solve for z . im assuming that's what it wants

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
