Explanation:
Consider ...
x/a = b/c . . . . . find x
Multiplying by the denominator under x gives ...
x = ab/c . . . . the value of the unknown.
____
In the case where the unknown is in the denominator, you can invert the ratios and solve as above:
a/x = c/b . . . . . note that x is in the denominator
x/a = b/c . . . . . equivalent equation, solve as above
Answer:
Perimeter of a triangle = add all sides
Both the legs of the isosceles triangle are always EQUAL.
x+4x-6+4x-6 = 60
9x-12 = 60
9x = 60+12
9x = 72
x = 8
