The square root of 256 is 16 which you square to find the area
The answer is 447 because you got to add 35 plus 410

Okay, so two of the sides in an isosceles triangle are of the same length. The lengths are either in the ratio 5:5:6 or 5:6:6
The perimeter is 32 cm
If we take the first ratio, 5:5:6, then we have 16 "parts". Let the length of each "part" be referred to as "x"
So, 16x = 32, and so x = 2
So, the ratio of the sides are 10 cm, 10 cm, 12 cm.
To find the height, "h", we need to use Pythagoras' Theorem, with 10 being the hypotenuse and 6 being the horizontal side (think of a line cutting straight down the middle of the isosceles triangle)
h^2 + 36 = 100
h = 8 cm
Area of a triangle is 0.5 x base x height. So, 0.5 x 12 x 8 = 48 cm^2
Hope I helped!! xx
