This question is actually pretty simple. Knowing that the triangle’s perimeter is 34 ft and that one side is 14 feet and the other two sides are equal, we can just subtract 34 feet by 14, which we would get 20 feet. Now, since we need to find the two sides that are equal, we just have to do 20 divided by 2, to get 10 feet for the remaining two sides.

Hence, the remaining length of the two sides is 20 feet, and each side is 10 feet. Any questions, leave below.
