1. Humberto está en la ferretería y va a comprar una ventana en forma
de triángulo isosceles. Se acuerda de la medida de dos de sus lados,
que son 2 metros y 1 metro, respectivamente. ¿Cuál es la medida del
lado que falta? ¿Puede Humberto comprar la ventana con esos datos?
​

Answer 1

There are two options:

Two sides are two meters and the other side is one meter

Two sides are one meter and the other side is two meters

Explanation:

The first thing is to remember what an isosceles triangle is, it is a triangle with two equal sides, therefore one is different from them, knowing the 2 sides of the triangle we know all the sides.

It tells us that it is agreed that the sides are 2 meters and 1 meter, therefore the missing average is 2 meters or 1 meter.

There are two options, the first:

Two sides are two meters and one side is one meter.

The second option is:

Two sides are one meter and the other side is two meters.

Humberto can buy with the sale with those data, but with a 50% probability that it is not what the window is like, since it is not possible to know if the sale is option 1 or option 2.
