The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 56 m, and its base is 34 m. Find the side of the triangle.

Let us determine how many meters the sum of the lengths of the lateral sides of our geometric figure will be expressed, when from the condition of the task we know that the side of the base is 34 meters:

56 – 34 = 22.

Let us determine how many meters the length of the lateral side of our geometric figure will be expressed, when we know from the school curriculum that in this type of triangles the sides are of the same length:

22: 2 = 11.

Answer: Under such conditions, the length of the side side will be 11 m.
