Triangle arm

Two isosceles triangles have the same angle at the apex concerning the base. One has a 17 cm long arm and a 10 cm long base. The second has a base length of 8 cm. Determine the length of his arm.

Final Answer:

r2 =  13.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

r1=17 cm z1=10 cm z2=8 cm  r1:z1 = r2:z2 r2=r1 z1z2=17 108=1017 8=10136=568 cm=13.6 cm
