Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The length of each leg has s and the altitude of each leg has r .

Calculation:

First, draw the line l .

Construct a parallel line which is r units from l .

Now, take a point B that cuts two arcs of length s on line l and m .

Draw AB,BC, and CA . Take ∠ABC=50° and ∠BAC=∠BCA=65° .

Thus, ΔABC is an acute isosceles triangle.

The figure is:

Here, it is not possible to construct an obtuse isosceles triangle.

Hence, the required result is found.
