What is the perimeter of an isosceles triangle with each leg measuring 2x+3 and the base measuring 6x-2?

10x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The Total perimeter is 2 * leg measurement + base

P = 2(2x + 3) + 6x - 2           Remove the brackets.

P = 4x + 6 + 6x - 2               Add like terms

P = 10x + 4                           Answer

10x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two sides equal

Perimeter is the sum of all sides

2(2x + 3) + 6x - 2

4x + 6 + 6x - 2

10x + 4

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
