Find the area of an isosceles triangle with sides 10 cm, 10 cm and 12 cm

1. Since the area of the triangle is equal to the product of half the size of the base and the height, it is necessary to determine the length of the height. To find, we apply the Pythagorean theorem.

√10² – 6² = √64 = 8 centimeters.

2. Find out what the area is.

12/2 * 8 = 48 cm²

Answer: 48 cm².
