Question 245752: Please help me solve this equation.
ABC is an isosceles triangle with vertex angle B. AB = 5X-28,AC = x+5, AND BC =2x+11. Find the length of BC. Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since it is an isosceles triangle with the vertex at angle B sides AC and BC are equal. Any info about AC is extra.
5x-28=2x+11
3x=11+28
3x=39
x=13
BC=26+11=37
AB=65-28=37
AC=18
