Area of an Isosceles Triangle

We will figure out how to determine the area of an isosceles triangle. We'll additionally see how to find the height of an isosceles triangle given the lengths of its sides since this is required to determine the area of a triangle.

Fundamentals of Isosceles Triangle

It is helpful to characterize an isosceles triangle to determine the area of an isosceles triangle. An isosceles triangle has only two sides of equivalent length, similar to the one depicted below.
