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, meas
kicyunya [14]
An isosceles triangle has 2 sides of the same length and one side that's not the same length.

So it says the shortest side, y, is 2.1m, so that means it's the side that is not the same length as the other two sides.

But the other two sides will be the same length. Let's make those 2 sides x.

The equation would be
x + x + 2.1 = 7.5

And with that you can find x.

The correct answer is x^2-2x+2=0

 The explanation is shown below:

 1. To solve the problem shown in the figure above, you must apply the following proccedure:

 2. You have that the roots of the quadratic equation shown in the figure attached in the problem are:

  x=-1±i

 3.  Then, you know the quadratic formula to solve quadratic equations, which is:

 (-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a

 4. You can see in the figure that a=1 and c=2; then, by analizing this, you can conclude that the coefficient b is:

 b=-2

 5. Therefore, you can conclude tha the quadratic equation is:

 x^2-2x+2=0

 6. If you want to verify it, apply the quadratic formula to the quadratic equation shown above and you will obtain the roots shown in the figure.
