From the given Answer choices, let's determine the set of integers which represents the length of sides of an isosceles triangle.

In an isosceles triangle, the opposite legs are congruent.

This means the legs of an isosceles triangle are equal.

Now, also, apply the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side.

Therefore, the set of integers that represent the lengths of sides of an iscosceles triangle is:

{6, 6, 5}

• ANSWER:

A. {6, 6, 5}
