equable isosceles triangles

the area value = perimeter value
for isosceles triangles (including an equilateral triangle, in Q2) with integer heights

this work involves: surds,
rationalising (simple) denominators
and pythagoras





three triangles sum to the large (isosceles) triangle

and 2a + 2c = ah since P = A
