We know that an isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides.
We can represent the equal sides with x, and the base with y:
2x + y = 15.6
Given states that y = x - 3, so:
2x + x - 3 = 15.6
3x = 18.6
x = 6.2
y = 3.2
The sides are 6.2 m, and the base is 3.2 m.
The answer would be neither
The equations both don't have slope so parallel is out, and in order to be perpendicular, they must cross at the 90 degree angel which they are not . So the answer would be neither
