You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you have a 2 right triangles. The hypotenuse of either one is the side of the isosceles triangle.
\n" ); document.write( "b^2+a^2=c^2
\n" ); document.write( "2^2+5^2
\n" ); document.write( "=4+25
\n" ); document.write( "=29
\n" ); document.write( "c=sqrt(29)' length of one of the other sides of the isosceles triangle.
\n" ); document.write( ".
