The value of y, the length of each leg, must be greater than 7.

What is Isosceles triangle?

This is a type of triangle with two equal sides.

Rules for side length of triangles

  • The sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side.

Let the first, second and third side = a, b and c respectively

     (b - a) < c < (a + b)

For an isosceles triangle with base of 14 units, the two other sides must be equal.

c <  (a + b)

c = 14

a = b = y

14 < (y + y)

14 < 2y

7 < y

Thus, the value of y, the length of each leg, must be greater than 7.
