The longest side of an acute triangle measures 30 inches. the two remaining sides are congruent, but their length is unknown. what is the smallest possible perimeter of the triangle, rounded to the nearest hundredth? 40.96 in. 51.22 in. 72.44 in. 81.22 in.

The smallest perimeter is 72.44 inches. The longest side of an acute triangle measures 30 inches. The two remaining sides are congruent, but their length is unknown. As much as possible, the sum of the length of the two remaining side must be greater than the other side. Given the side is 30, then the sum of the two remaining sides should be greater than 30 inches.
