How many pairs of perpendicular lines does an isosceles triangle have?

There can be only one pair of perpendicular lines in an isosceles triangle when it is a right angled isosceles triangle. A non right angled isosceles triangle has no pairs of perpendicular lines.


Does an isosceles triangle have perpendicular lines?

Not normally but as an isosceles right angle triangle it will have perpendicular lines that meet at 90 degrees.


How many perpendicular lines does an isosceles triangle have?

If it is a 45° 45° 90° isosceles right triangle, then there are 2 sides that are perpendicular.


How may perpendicular lines in an isosceles triangle?

None but its apex is perpendicular to its base


Does isosceles triangle have perpendicular lines?

No but it does have 3 sides 2 of which are of equal lengths.


How many lines of symmetry has an isoscles triangle have?

The isosceles triangle has one line of symmetry, the perpendicular bisector of the base


Is a isosceles triangle perpendicular?

No


How many lines of symetry does isosceles triangle have?

Only one line of symmetry, it is the line that contains the median of the isosceles triangle (that passes through the vertex and perpendicular to the base).


Are the side of an isosceles triangle perpendicular?

The only requirement for an isosceles triangle is that two sides be the same length and one be different. It is possible for an isosceles triangle to have two perpendicular legs. It would be right and isosceles.


How do you draw an isosceles right triangle?

An isosceles right triangle is a 45° 45° 90° triangle. If you know how to construct a right angle (two lines that are perpendicular), then just take a compass, with the point on the intersection of the perpendicular lines, and mark the same distance on each of the perpendicular lines, then use a straight edge to connect those two points. Or, if you have a square, you can connect two of opposite corners with a diagonal and you will have 2 triangles, both of them isosceles right triangles.


How you can draw a altitude with isosceles triangle?

The altitude line is perpendicular to the base and bisects the apex of the isosceles triangle.


Do the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle always sometimes or never intersect on the triangle?

The perpendicular bisectors only intersect on the triangle when it is an isosceles right triangle.
