**50 points** the congruent sides of an isosceles triangle are each 1 unit longer than the length of the shortest side of the triangle. the perimeter of the triangle is the same as the perimeter of a square whose side length is 2 units shorter than the length of the shortest side of the triangle. what is the length of the shortest side of the triangle? units

The length would be 10 units

Hi Austin!

The congruent sides of an isosceles triangle are each 1 unit longer than the length of the shortest side of the triangle. The perimeter of the triangle is the same as the perimeter of a square whose side length is 2 units shorter than the length of the shortest side of the triangle. What is the length of the shortest side of the triangle?

We Know:

Isosceles Triangle is a triangle with  sides with the same length and the other not.

x = both equal sides

y = smaller side

x is 1 unit longer than y

Same perimeter as a square that the length is 2 units shorter than the shortest side.

Solution:

Use 10 (y = 10)

Triangle: 10 + 10 + 9 = 29

Square: 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 28

Answer - 10 units

Hope This Helps :)

18.8 cubic inches.

step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cone = πr²h

r = 1.5 inches

h = 8 inches

pi = 3.14

volume of our cone = × 3.14 × 1.5² × 8 = 18.84 square inches

or equals to 18.8 square inches rounded up to nearest tenth.
