Question 613693: Triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle. Sides AB and BC are the legs and side AC is a base. If AB is equal to 5 cm, then what is the length of BC?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! In an isosceles triangle, the lengths of the legs of the triangle are equal.
so in triangle ABC, if AB and AC are the legs and BC the base, then AB=AC.
here in the question the legs are AB and BC, so they will be equal AB=BC.
BC= AB = 5cm
