Yes, the base angles of an isosceles triangle are always congruent. An isosceles triangle commonly has two sides that are equal in length. The base angles are the angles opposite those two equal sides of the triangle. A geometric theorem states that if two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. The converse is also true.

An angle not congruent to the base angles of an isosceles triangle?
The base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is not necessarily congruent to the base angles.
In an isosceles triangle the base angles are?
The base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent.
If the base angles of a triangle are congruent then the triangle is isosceles?
It will be either isosceles or equilateral. It is equilateral if all of the angles are congruent.
What is the same about an isosceles triangle and an isosceles trapezoid?
In an isosceles triangle and an isosceles trapezoid, both base angles are congruent
If a triangle has two congruent angles is it isosceles?
Yes, because of the base angles theorem converse: If two angles in a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite the angles are congruent.
What does an isoscels triangle look like?
An isosceles triangle has at least two equal sides and two equal angles An isosceles triangle has two or more congruent sides called legs. In an isosceles triangle with just two congruent sides, the angle formed by the legs is called the apex, and the other two angles, called base angles, are congruent. If the isosceles triangle has three congruent sides (AKA an equilateral triangle), then all three sides and angles are congruent, and there are no definitive base or vertex angles, besides...all of them.

Does An isosceles triangle contains at least two congruent angles?
Yes. The two base angles (the angles opposite the equal sides) are always congruent.

There are two pairs of congruent base angles in an isosceles trapezoid.
What is the measure of the base angle of an isosceles triangle if the vertex measures 38 degrees?
(180 - 38)/2 = 71 degrees (base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent).

In an isosceles triangle does the median to the base bisect the vertex angle?
In the diagram, ABC is an isoscels triangle with the congruent sides and , and is the median drawn to the base . We know that ∠A ≅ ∠C, because the base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent; we also know that ≅ , by definition of an isosceles triangle. A median of a triangle is a line segment drawn from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. That means ≅ . This proves that ΔABD ≅ ΔCBD. Since corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent, that means ∠ABD≅ ∠CBD. Since the median is the common side of these adjacent angles, in fact bisects the vertex angle of the isosceles triangle.
