Problem

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 15 units. Find out the length of the third side of the triangle if the equal sides measure 4 units each.

2

Step

Given, Perimeter of isosceles triangle (P)
length of equal side is

\$15\$ units
\$4\$ units

3

Formula:

Perimeter of Isosceles triangle

Perimeter = 2 * (length of equal side) + length of the third side

4

Step

Substitute the values

\$15 = (2 \times 4) + c\$

5

Step

Here,we find out the third side (c)

\$15 = 8 - c\$

6

Step

After simplification

\$c = 15 -8 = 7 \$ units

7

Step

The length of the third side of the isosceles triangle is

\$7\$ units

8

Answer

D
