Answer:
(7.5-2.1) /2
If the shortest side measures 2.1 m.
7.5-2.1 =5.4. Then divide by 2 each side is 2.7m
Answer:
The equation for finding the value of x is 2x + 2.1 = 7.5 and the value of x is 2.7 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the isosceles triangle = 7.5 m
Length of the shortest side = 2.1 m
Let the length of each of the other sides of the triangle = x meter
Then the equation for the perimeter of the triangle becomes:
Sum of 3 sides f the triangle = 7.5 m
=> 2*x + 2.1 = 7.5
=> 2*x = 7.5 - 2.1 = 5.4
=> x = 5.4/2 = 2.7 m
So the relevant equation for finding the value of x is 2x + 2.1 = 7.5 and the value of x is 2.7 m.
