I need the statement /reason
△ABC is an isosceles triangle,
AC
- base
△BDC is an equilateral triangle
Perimeter of △ABC = 42, AC = 12
Find: Perimeter of △BDC

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For Triangle ABC

AB+BC+AC=42

Given that AC=12.

To get perimert of BDC

BD+BC+DC

Given that ABC is isosceles and AC is base then AB= BC

Then from the perimeter AB and BC will share 42-12= 30

Then AB=BC=15

Since BDC is equilateral and BC is 15, then BD is 15 and DC is 15

Therefore,

perimeter of triangle BDC=BD+BC+DC

P= 15+15+15

P=45
