The are of any triangle is calculated by the formula:
Area = 1/2 x Base x Height

Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
Isosceles triangle have two equal angles2
Area of Equilateral Triangle A= S2 * (Root 3)/4, where A= Area of the triangle S= Side of the triangle.
It is very unlikely for a right angle triangle to be isosceles, however it is possible if the angles are 90, 45, and 45 degrees. It does not matter if the triangle is isosceles, this method works for all right triangles. The following formula is your answer, when h=hypotenuse, and a and b are other two sides. a2 + b2 = h2
The altitude line is perpendicular to the base and bisects the apex of the isosceles triangle.
