5.9*(6.7+x)/2=44.25
\n" ); document.write( "5.9*(6.7+x)=44.25*2
\n" ); document.write( "39.53+5.9x=88.5
\n" ); document.write( "5.9x=88.5-39.53
\n" ); document.write( "5.9x=48.97
\n" ); document.write( "x=48.97/5.9
\n" ); document.write( "x=8.3 is the length of the other base.
\n" ); document.write( "proof:
\n" ); document.write( "5.9(6.7+8.3)/2=44.25
\n" ); document.write( "5.9(15/2)=44.25
\n" ); document.write( "5.9*7.5=44.25
\n" ); document.write( "44.25=44.25\r
