How do you find the height of an isosceles triangle?

Back

The height can be found by drawing a perpendicular line from the vertex angle to the base, creating two right triangles.

Front

If the lengths of the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle are 5 cm, what is the minimum length of the base?

Back

The minimum length of the base must be greater than 0 cm and less than 10 cm (5 + 5 > base > 5 - 5).
