Asked by Alexis

Evan cut a triangular piece of cloth to use in a quilt. The perimeter of the cloth is 934
centimeters. The base of the triangular cloth is 214
centimeters. The remaining two sides have the same length, s. Which equation models how to find the length of the other two sides of Evan’s cloth?
2s = 934÷214
2s = 934+214
2s = 214÷2
2s = 934−214

Perimeter = base + 2(equal sides), so 214 + 2s = 934. Rearranged: 2s = 934 − 214. (Thus s = (934−214)/2 = 720/2 = 360 cm.)
