Question

what is the value of w?

w =

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of isosceles triangle

In a triangle, if two angles are equal, then the sides opposite to them are equal.
Since angles at \(V\), \(T\), and \(U\) - assume two angles (say \(\angle V=\angle U\)) make the triangle isosceles.
The side opposite \(\angle V\) is \(TU = w\) and the side opposite \(\angle U\) is \(TV=16\)

Answer:

\(16\)
