Answer:

x = 13ft

Explanation:

The isosceles triangle is a polygon with three sides, two being equal and the other unequal.

The angles P and N will also be equal and the M other different.

PM ≅ MN

∠P ≅ ∠N

PN = 2x

because the line starting at M divides the triangle into two sections

26 = 2x

2x = 26

x = 26 /2

x = 13ft
