Sounds like an isosceles triangle.
Let the base be x
each of the other sides = (1/2)x + 1
x + 2((1/2)x + 1) = 22
x + x + 2 = 22
x = 10
so the sides are 6 , 6, and 10
Two equal sides of a triangle are 1 metre more than half the third side. If the perimetre of the triangle is 22 meters find the lenth of its side.

How you got 6
We got 6 because they had told more than half the 3 sides so 3 + 3 = 6 so that two sides which are equal are 6
Its helpful.. Thank you so much..
