An isosceles triangle has a base of 6 and a height of 4. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
An isosceles triangle has a base of 6 and a height of 4. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
An isosceles triangle is basically two right triangles stuck together. The isosceles triangle has a base of 6, which means that from the midpoint of the base to one of the angles, the length is 3. Now, you have a right triangle with a base of 3 and a height of 4. The hypotenuse of this right triangle, which is one of the two congruent sides of the isosceles triangle, is 5 units long (according to the Pythagorean Theorem).
The total perimeter will be the length of the base (6) plus the length of the hypotenuse of each right triangle (5).
5 + 5 + 6 = 16

In order to calculate the triangle's perimeter, we need to find the lengths of its legs. An isosceles triangle is a special triangle due to the values of its angles. These triangles are referred to as 
triangles and their side lengths follow a specific pattern that states that one can calculate the length of the legs of an isoceles triangle by dividing the length of the hypotenuse by the square root of 2.
Now we can calculate the perimeter by doubling 
and adding 
.
