Since the vertex angle is 64⁰, the base angle is 58⁰, (180⁰ - 64⁰ )/2.
Using the Law of Sines we have
side length/sin 58⁰ = 3 cm/sin 64⁰ (multiply by sin 58⁰ to both sides)
side length = (3 cm)(sin 58⁰)/sin 64⁰ ≈ 2.8 cm
Thus, the congruent sides of the given isosceles triangle have a length of 2.8 cm.

How many degrees in an isosceles tringle?
All triangles have a total of 180 degrees. In an isosceles triangle the two angles opposite the side of equal length will have equal degrees.
What is the degrees of an acute isosceles triangle?
101 degrees :p
What is a isosceles right triangle?
In an isosceles right angled triangle,1 angle is 90 degrees and the other two are equal ,each is 45 degrees
Which triangle is not an isosceles triangle?
An obtuse triangle or a right angle triangle. An equilateral is definitely an isoceles triangle * * * * * Not true. An obtuse or right angled triangles can be isosceles. It depends on the sizes of the two smaller angles. An isosceles triangle has two equal angles so a triangle with angles of size [A, (180-A)/2, (180-A)/2] degrees where 90 < A < 180 degrees would be an obtuse angled isosceles triangle. A triangle with angles of size (90, 45, 45) degrees is a right angled isosceles triangle.
Can a right triangle be isosceles?
No, an isosceles triangle can not be a right triangle, because a right triangle has an angle of 90 degrees angle, and two angles of 45 degrees. An isosceles triangle has all acute angles, therefor, making it an acute triangle, so no, an isosceles triangle is not, i repeat not, a right triangle.
How many degrees in an isosceles tringle?
All triangles have a total of 180 degrees. In an isosceles triangle the two angles opposite the side of equal length will have equal degrees.
How many degrees is there in an isosceles triangle?
because an isosceles triangle or any kind of triangle is 180 degrees.
Is a right triangle can be isosceles?
Yes. Only if the other two angles of the right triangle are congruent and each equal 45 degrees. Then using the isosceles triangle theorem, you know that the two sides opposite the angles are congruent.
What degree angles has an isosceles triangle?

A triangle with two congruent sides and an angle of 104 degrees is?
A triangle with two congruent sides is isosceles. A triangle with an angle of 104 degrees is obtuse. So you would have an obtuse isosceles triangle.
