Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the length of the base of the triangle b. The two other sides are both the same length. From the problem, we know their lengths are both 5b. We also know the sum of all these lengths is 33m. So,

33m = 5b + 5b + b

33m = 11b

3m = b

Therefore, the base of the triangle is 3m and the two other sides are five times longer at 15m.

hope this helps :)
