The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 37cm; its lateral side is 5cm larger than the base. Calculate the length of the sides of the triangle.

Decision:
suppose the base is X and the sides are X + 5
Then 37 cm = 3X + 10
37-10 = 27
27/3 = 9- X
9 + 5 = 14 – sides
Answer: the sides are exactly 14 cm, and the base is exactly 9 cm.
