Answer:

1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the base of the notepad is a square, that means that each side of the base would be equal. Since the area is 2.25 square inches, and each side would have to be equal, the equation to solve would be x*x = 2.25, or x^2=2.25. So, you just take the square root of both sides, and x=1.5 inches. Each side of the notepad would be 1.5 inches.

The base of an isosceles triangle is 7 cm longer than the legs. Find the legs if the perimeter of the triangle is 43 cm.

Archy [21]

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has one pair of equal sides. The Formula in finding the perimeter of a triangle is PΔ=S₁+S₂+S₃. Since two legs are missing, and the given are the base and perimeter, we will use the formula : S₁+S₂ = PΔ-S₃, where: S₁+S₂ are the legs and S₃ is the base.
Substitute values:
S₁+S₂ = 43cm - 7 cm
 = 36 cm
since S₁ and S₂ are equal, divide 36cm by 2. Therefore S₁ and S₂ measures 18cm.
Check: PΔ=S₁+S₂+S₃
 = 18cm + 18 cm + 7cm
= 43cm
