The distance around a triangle is 34 centimeters. If two sides are equal and the length of the third side is 6 centimeters, what is the length of each of the other two sides?

34-6 = 28

28 divided by 2 = 14

So, the length of the two other sides is 14 centimeters.

Subtract 6 from the total then divide by 2.

34-6 = 28

28/2 = 14

The length of the other two sides are 14 cm each
