Answer :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: option iii

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle with congruent sides of 16.2 cm and a third side half that length is 16.2+16.2+8.1 = 40.5 cm

Explanation:

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle with congruent sides of 16.2 cm and a third side half that length is 16.2+16.2+8.1 = 40.5 cm

First side is = 16.2 cm

Second side is = 16.2 cm

Third side = half of 16.2 = 8.1 cm


The perimeter of an isosceles triangle with congruent sides of 16.2 cm and a third side half that length is 16.2+16.2+8.1 = 40.5 cm
