Find the sides of an isosceles triangle if its perimeter is 95 cm and the base is 3 times the side.

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides equal. The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides.

one). The side of a triangle is x centimeters.

2). The length of the base of the triangle is x * 3 = 3x centimeters.

3). Let’s compose and solve the equation.

x + x + 3x = 95;

5x = 95;

x = 95/5 = 19;

x = 19;

Answer: The side of an isosceles triangle is x = 19 centimeters. The base of an isosceles triangle is x * 3 = 19 * 3 = 57 centimeters.
