A triangle with two congruent sides is an isoscelestriangle. But an equilateral triangle has two congruent sides. (It actually has three congruent sides.) And isosceles triangle is generally described as a triangle with exactly two congruent sides.

Isosceles Triangle Isosceles TriangleIsosceles triangles have at least 2 congruent sides, and equilateral triangles have all 3 sides equal. A scalene triangle has no congruent sides or angles. All triangles have 180 degrees total.An equilateral triangle has three congruent sides and an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides.
Yes, an isosceles triangle is a triangle that has at least two congruent sides.
False
The length of the sides of an isosceles triangle are not set in stone. An isosceles triangle is defined as a triangle with at least two congruent sides. Equilateral triangles; that is, triangles in which all sides are of equal length are also considered to be isosceles triangles. Therefore, as long as at least two sides of the triangle are congruent, (Of equal length) said triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Correct. Congruency means that two triangles have three pairs of congruent angles and corresponding sides of the same lengths. A pair of triangles with three pairs of congruent angles but sides of different lengths are similar, not congruent.
