Question

Given: BAD = CAD. Find the perimeter of ABC.

Answer 1

Answer:

34 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are equal, the bottom length of triangle CAD will be the same as the bottom length of BAD. This means that the total length of the bottom of triangle ABC is 6 (3 + 3).

Next, you need to find the length of AC and again, since they're the same triangle, AB will be the same as AC, 14.

The three side lengths of the triangle will be 6, 14, and 14, so the perimeter is

6 + 14 + 14 = 34 units
