OpenStudy (nerdgirl):

Just a recommendation. Also, learn how to spell right. You look old enough to at least know how to spell.

Rainbow, do you know what perimeter is?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

PERIMETER IS 22

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

How do you get that?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

13+9=22

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

But we have an isosceles triangle

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

oh

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Remember, triangles have 3 sides

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

oh yah

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

so the answer is 31?

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Yep, since isosceles triangles have 2 sides that are equal, and it says it has congruent sides of 9, that is 13 + 9 + 9

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

thx for the help

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):
