Let \"x\" = each of the sides of the same length
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2x+-+2+\" = the length of the 3rd side
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+x+%2B+2x+-+2+=+14+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+4x+-+2+=+14+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+4x+=+16+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2x+-+2+=+2%2A4+-+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2x+-+2+=+6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The lengths of the sides are:
\n" ); document.write( "4m, 4m, and 6m
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The sides with the same length are 4m and 4m
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+4+%2B+4+%2B+6+=+14+\"
\n" ); document.write( "OK\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
