To figure out what the measure of the base angles in an isosceles triangle are, it is important to first understand several things about an isosceles triangle. 1. A triangle has 180 degrees. 2. An isosceles has two equal sides, which means that it also has two equivalent angles. 3. In knowing at least any one angle of an isosceles triangle, it is possible to figure out the other two. Since the base angles are unknown in this question, and they are equivalent to one another, it is a simple algebraic problem. 180 - 70 = 2A 180 is the number of degrees in a triangle 70 is the number of degrees taken up by angle C, with angles A and B being the equivalent base angles. 2a is the double of one base angle. Let's solve. 180 - 70 = 2A 110 = 2A 110/2 = A 55 = A The measure of each base angle is 55.

well if its a perfect L you should be able to see it! hope i helped =)
Simple, by finding how many traingles there are in the shape through this formula 180(n-2). N stand for how many interior angles. Knowing how many triangles you can multiply it by 180 giving you the total degrees in the shape. Keep in mind this is only for a REGULAR hepatagon. Knowing the sum of the angles u can divide it by the total amount of angles and get the measure for each interior angle. This sounds confusing but it really isn't.
The formula for finding the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is: 180 x (n - 2) where n = the number of sides. This comes from knowing the following: Given a polygon of n sides, there are n - 2 triangles you can form by connecting a given vertice (point where two sides meet) to all other vertices of the polygon. The 180 in the formula is the sum of the angles in a triangle. Therefore, the sum of the interior angles (or, as you put it, the angle sum) of your 11 sided figure would be: 180 x (11 - 2) = 180 x (9) = 1620 degrees. Hope that answers your question and gets you on your way to figuring out other geometry problems.
scalene, equilateral, isosceles and right angle triangles
that question can not be answered without knowing what the inside angle of the 2 equal sides is.
If you are dealing with an isosceles triangle, if one of the base angles measures 42 degrees then the other base angle measures 42 degrees. (By definitioin an isosceles triangle has at least 2 equal sides and the angle opposite those sides with be equal.) If you add up the degrees in each angle within a triangle, it will always equal 180 degrees. Knowing all this you can set up a formula: Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180 42 + 42 + Angle 3 = 180 Angle 3 = 96 degrees
Well, it helps immensely to know the formula for the area of a triangle. The area of a triangle is 1/2 (length of the base) times (height) .Knowing that, all you have to do is draw a triangle in such a way that the length of the base (in cm), multiplied by the height (in cm) is 12 . There are an infinite number of ways to do it, so finding one should not be a problem.
You cannot. A right angled isosceles triangle will always be 90-45-45 so knowing the angles does not add any information. Without knowledge of any one side, you cannot distinguish between the infinitely many similar 90-45-45 triangles.

I'm pretty sure that only works if it is an isosceles right triangle. In that case, use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the base and height knowing only the hypotenuse. A2 + B2 = C2. A=B= height= base. C= hypotenuse
There are many formulae for triangles: Some formulae will calculate sides given angles or conversely. Some will calculate the area. It is not possible to say how you would use a formula without knowing what it is for!
I cannot answer this without knowing any more information. Finding the proper dimensions of a triangle without knowing the kind of triangle cannot really be done. Because it may be an isosceles triangle (every angle is equal) or it could be a 30-60-90 triangle etc.
You require another piece of information. Knowing the "vertex" angle will not tell you the length of any one side. You can have a triangle the size of the continental USA with a "vertex" angle of 15 degrees and you can have a triangle invisible to the human eye with a "vertex" angle of 15 degrees. You can see how these would have different side lengths.
The angle measure of a triangle is dependent on the type of triangle (scalene, right, isosceles, or equilateral) and also the measures of the other two angles.In a scalene, none of the angles can be predicted without a protractor because none of the angles are equal.In a right triangle only one angle can be undoubtedly determined, the 90° angle (right angle). Knowing this angle's measure, this only limits the possible angle measures of the other two angles. (They must each be less than 90°, but together sum up to 90°)If you know one of the base angles of an isosceles triangle, by the Isosceles Triangle Base Angles Theorem, the other base angle will be congruent. To find the last angle, add the base angles together and then subtract that number from 180.The only triangle that has angle measures that can be determined just by its name is an equilateral, all angle measures equal 60°.
Yes. The three sides uniquely specify the triangle. If all three sides are equal it is equilateral. If only two are equal it is isosceles. If none are equal it is scalene. If the sum of the squares of the two shorter lengths is equal to the square of the longest length, it is a right angled triangle. If the sum of the squares on the two shorter sides is less than the square on the longest, it is an obtuse angled triangle. Otherwise it is an acute triangle.
