Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two legs that have the same length. The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of all sides of the triangle. Now taking this into account, we know that:

2L + B = 14 units

Where:

L is the measure of one leg

B is the measure of the base

Since two legs are the same and the base is 1 less, this means the measure of each leg would be:

B = L -1

Now we have two equations:

2L + B = 14 units

B = L- 1

We plug one equation into the other and make 1 equation:

2L + (L-1) = 14 units

Get rid of the parentheses:

2L + L - 1 = 14

Combine like terms:

3L - 1 = 14

Add 1 to both sides of the equation:

3L - 1 + 1 = 14 + 1

3L = 15

Divide both sides by 3:

3L/3 = 15/3

L = 5

So the length of a leg is 5 units

Let's check!

B = L - 1

B = 5 - 1

B = 4

Then we use that to solve for the perimeter:

2L + B

2(5) + 4

10 + 4 = 14

Find the circumference of a circle with an area of 676pi
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The circumference of the circle is 52π

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise we first have to calculate the radius of the circle, for this we will use the formula of area of ​​a circle and we will clear the radius

a = area = 676π

r = radius

a = π * r²

we clear r

r = √(a/π)

now we replace the known values

r =  √(676π/π)

r = √(676)

r = 26

now we use the formula to calculate the circumference of a circle

c = π * 2r

c = π * 2 *  26

c = 52π

The circumference of the circle is 52π
