  1. The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 26 cm while equal sides together measure 20 cm. The third side and each of the equal sides are respectively.
    1. 6 cm and 10 cm
    2. 8 cm and 9 cm
    3. 10 cm and 8 cm
    4. 14 cm and 6 cm
    5. None of the above
Correct Option: A

Let the third side be x.
According to the question,
x + 20 = 26
⇒ x = 26 - 20 = 6 cm
∴ Each equal side = 20/2 = 10 cm
