Step 1 :Given an isosceles triangle with equal sides a = 10 and base b = 27, find the area.
Step 2 :Calculate half of the base: c = \(\frac{27}{2}\) = 13.5
Step 3 :Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height: h^2 = a^2 - c^2
Step 4 :Since the sum of the two equal sides (10 + 10 = 20) is less than the length of the base (27), the triangle cannot exist.
Step 5 :\boxed{\text{None of these answers are correct.}}
