Answer:

10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Isosceles Triangle

[tex]Perimeter=24\ in[/tex]

[tex]Side = 4\ in[/tex]

Required

Find the length of the other two sides

Represent the other sides with x.

Since it is an isosceles triangle, 2 sides are equal.

So, we have:

[tex]x + x + 4 = 24[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4 = 24[/tex]

[tex]2x = 24-4[/tex]

[tex]2x = 20[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{20}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{20}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

The other sides are 10in each
