Angles of Isosceles Triangles∆ABC is isosceles with AB = AC, and ∠A = 80°. What can we say about ∠B and ∠C ? Let’s first draw the figure To solve this, we construct altitude from vertex A to BC Now, by Corresponding parts of Congruent Triangles (CPCT) ∠ ABD = ∠ ACD Thus, we can write ∠ B = ∠ C This is a Property of Isosceles Triangle In an Isosceles Triangle, Angle opposite to equal sides are equal
