Answer:
11 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the two lengths of a triangle as
AB = 6ft
AC = 6ft
This is an isosceles triangle because only 2 sides are equal.
In an isosceles triangle, the sum of 2 (sides) lengths must be greater than the other length.
Therefore, let's assume the following:
i) AC + AB > BC
6 + 6 > BC
12 > BC (BC is less than 12)
BC < 12
ii) BC + AC > AB
BC + 6 > 6
BC > 6 - 6
BC > 0
Therefore the range of values for BC =
0 < BC < 12
Since BC must be bigger than one of the lengths and it must also be less than the sum of the 2 sides. The length of BC could be 11 because it is less than (6+6) 12 and greater than 6.
