Answer:

8 in, 8 in and 20 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equal sides of the isosceles triangle be x, then

The base = 2.5x

Sum the 3 sides and equate to the perimeter of 36

x + x + 2.5x = 36

4.5x = 36 ( divide both sides by 4.5 )

x = 8

Thus the 2 equal legs = 8 in

base = 2.5x = 2.5 × 8 = 20 in

What is 0.3636363636 to the nearest thousandth?
Bad White [126]

Answer: 0.364

The reason that it would be 0.364 is because the thousandths place is the third decimal place, which would leave you with a 3 but since there is a 6 after the 3, the 3 would be rounded up to a 4.
