Where did you find the question?

Vocaloid · Answer

In an isosceles triangle, exactly two sides are congruent. Let’s suppose s = the side length of each of the two congruent sides, and b = the length of the third side

The perimeter is 24, so b + s + s = 24

Simplify this, then solve the equation for b to get the equation in terms of s
