an isosceles triangle can have any vertex angle less than 180 and greater than 0, as long the other two angles are equal. an isosceles triangle with a vertex of 179 degrees would just have the other two angles be 0.5 degrees. A right triangle with matching angles (both 45 degrees) would be both a right triangle and isosceles triangle.
Yes, they are.
If it is an isosceles triangle then the base angles must be equal angles of 69 degrees because there are 180 degrees in a triangle and 42+69+69 = 180 degrees
The base angles will have equal angles of 50 degrees
If the vertex of an isosceles triangle has a measure of 70° what is the measure of one base angleANSWER:Isosceles = 2 legs, 1 vertex, 1 baseTriangle = 180°if its vertex measure 70° , 1 leg ____? + 1 leg____? =180° and all isosceles triangle has congruent legs.180°- 70°=110° then 110° divided by 2 =55°=vertex of an isosceles triangle measure 70° and its 2 legs measure 55°
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 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.
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.

(180 - 38)/2 = 71 degrees (base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent).

Well a triangle with two congruent sides would be called a isosceles triangle. It has a vertex, two base angles, two legs, and a base.
Only if the vertex angle being bisected is between the sides of equal length will the result be two congruent triangles.
The two angles that are not the isosceles vertex are equal.
MYou just described an equilateral triangle which is in fact isosceles and acute, and additional any isosceles triangle with a vertex angle of less than 90 is acute as the base angles are congruent and all three angles must add to180
Equilateral triangles have 3 equal sides, but isosceles only have two equal sides. Also, equilateral triangles have three 60° angles. Isosceles triangles have two congruent base angles and a vertex angle.
To find the equal angels, base angles, of an isosceles triangle and you know the vertex angle, 180-vertex angle and then divide by two.
They're similar triangles.
