Answer:

9.36cm

Explanation:

We can add up all the sides to find the perimeter.


x+2x+2x=5x

So the perimeter, 46.8, is equivalent to 5x.

Solve.


5x=46.8 \\ \\ x=9.36

So
x is 9.36.

Since the base is
1x, the base is 9.36cm.

We can plug back in to check our answers.


2x=18.72\\9.36+18.72+18.72 = 46.8
