Answer: Answer; X = 5cm

The length of all three sides would be 13cm, 13cm and 10cm.

Step-by-step explanation: First of all the given triangle is an isosceles triangle which means two sides measure 2x + 3. The third side measures 2x. The perimeter measures the entire length of the triangle, which means, perimeter equals

(2x + 3)+ (2x + 3)+ 2x = 36

2x+3+2x+3+2x=36

6x + 6 = 36

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

6x = 36 -6

6x = 30

Divide both sides of the equation by 6

X =5cm.
