A span on a bridge is the distance between supports such as from pier to pier. A bridge can have several supports over its length. A bridge length includes the entire bridge.

How do you find which triangle if you know the lengths of the sides of a triangle whether it is isosceles or equilateral or scalene?

You look at the lengths of the sided of the triangle. If the two lengths are same, the triangle is an isosceles triangle. If all the lengths are same, the triangle is an equilateral triangle. If none of the lengths are same, the triangle is a scalene triangle.

How are beam and suspension bridges alike?

A suspension bridge deck is suspended from above on a catenary cable between two fixed points. The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge. Using suspension techniques, great spans with minimum obstruction under can be created. A beam or truss (reinforced beam) bridge deck is supported from underneath on a construction of beams or arches (bent beams). longer, stronger spans favour the beam truss method of construction, especially where wind generated sway is an issue. The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a Beam/Truss bridge.

What is length of each side of the isosceles trapezoid if the perimeter equal 119?

Several solutions are possible here. The four sides could be the same length, or different lengths. The only requirement (with respect to lengths) to be called an "isosceles trapezoid" is that two opposite sides have the same length.Several solutions are possible here.
