Answer:

short base: 6 yards

long base: 8 yards

Explanation:

Our understanding of your figure is shown below.

The question says the "shortest side" and the "width" have the same dimension. If the "width" is a reference to "height 6 yards", then it seems the "shortest side" is 6 yards. Since the slant sides are longer than the height, the "shortest side" is also the "short base."

The short base is 6 yards.

__

The long base overhangs the short base by 1 yard on either end, so it is a total of 2 yards longer than the short base. It it 6+2 = 8 yards long.

The long base is 8 yards.

Hope this is correct, if not then feel free to let me know. I'm sorry in advance if it is incorrect.
