This isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, a, that are longer than the length of the base, b. The perimeter of the triangle is 15.7 centimeters. The equation can be used to find the side lengths. If one of the longer sides is 6.3 centimeters, what is the length of the base?

cm

b=3.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Both of the longer sides will be equal so you can set up the equation (6.3+6.3)+b=15.7. Simplified you get 12.6+b=15.7, subtracting 12.6 from both sides you get that b=3.1 cm. This can be checked because it is also shorter than 6.3 and works correctly in the perimeter.

the arc length is found by finding the circumference of the full circle (2xpixradius) and then dividing by 4 to find just one quarter of the circle (90 degrees).

believe it or not anna is correct good job anna give me a fist bump there u go gal
