There are three solutions, corresponding to assuming each of the 3 sides is similar to the side of length
Explanation:
There are three possible solutions, depending on whether we assume the side of length
If we assume it is the side of length
If we assume it is the side of length
If we assume it is the side of length
This could be represented in a table.
