An equilateral triangle has all sides measuring the same and an isosceles triangle has 2 sides congruent, so they are not the same.
Every equilateral triangle is also an isosceles triangle, but not every isosceles triangle is an equilateral triangle.
Isosceles = at least two equal sides
Equilateral = three equal sides

Are isosceles triangle sometimes an equilateral triangle?
Are isosceles triangle sometimes an equilateral triangle
A isosceles triangle is a special type of equilateral triangle?
Not ... exactly. It would be closer to accurate to say that an equilateral triangle is a special case of the isosceles triangle.All equilateral triangles are (also) isosceles; but most isosceles triangles are not equilateral.
Is a right triangle an equilateral scalene or isosceles triangle?
It can be scalene or isosceles but not equilateral.
What is the contrapositive of the statement if it is an equilateral triangle then it is an isosceles triangle?
The contrapositive would be: If it is not an isosceles triangle then it is not an equilateral triangle.
Can an equilaterial triangle also be an isoseles triangle?
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides, and An equilateral triangle is a special isosceles triangle in which all three sides are congruent.Therefore, all equilateral triangles are isosceles
Can an equilateral triangle also be an isosceles triangle?
No because an equilateral has 3 equal sides whereas an isosceles has 2 equal sides
What equilateral triangles are isosceles?
No.
Are All equilateral triangles are isosceles.?
No because an equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides but an isosceles triangle has only 2 equal sides
Triangle with one axis of symmetry?
Any isosceles triangle which is not also an equilateral triangle. An equilateral triangle would have three.
Are all isosceles triangles also equilateral triangles?
No, not at all, all isosceles triangles aren't equilateral since an equilateral triangle is a triangle with all of its sides equal, i.e. all sides of an equilateral triangle are equal, but in an isosceles triangle only two of its sides are equal.
Why does Wiki say that equilateral triangles are isosceles?
An equilateral triangle is a special type of isosceles triangle. It has two equal sides, which makes it isosceles; its third side is also equal, making it equilateral, too.
Is an equilateral triangle equal to an isosceles triangle?
An isosceles triangle has at least two congruent sides. An equilateral triangle has three congruent sides. So, an equilateral triangle is a special case of isosceles triangles. Since the equilateral triangle has three congruent sides, it satisfies the conditions of isosceles triangle. So, equilateral triangles are always isosceles triangles. Source: www.icoachmath.com
