The isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 7.5 m. Which equation can be used to find the value of x if the
shortest side, y, measures 2.1 m?
y
O 2x-2.1 = 7.5
O 4.2 + y = 7.5
X
O y-4.2 = 7.5
0 2.1 + 2 x = 7.5

Option d) 2.1 + 2x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two equal sides.

Perimeter of a triangle is some of all the 3 sides.

Let the equal sides be x

Let the third side be y

Therefore,

              Perimeter = x + x + y

                         7.5 = 2x + y    

                          7.5 = 2x + 2.1                    [ given shortest side, y = 2.1m ]

d) 48

4 and 5)16.97 or 12√2

6)15.59 or 9√3

7)y = 15.59 or 9√3     x =27

8)17.80
