Isosceles & Equilateral Triangles Notes 20 – Section 4.6
Essential Learnings • Students will understand and be able to use the properties of isosceles and equilateral triangles to solve triangles.
Isosceles Triangle Theorem • If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. B If AB ≅ CB then ∠A ≅ ∠C A C
Converse of Isosceles Triangle Theorem • If two angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are congruent. B If ∠A ≅ ∠C then AB ≅ CB A C
Equilateral Triangle Theorem • A triangle is equilateral if and only if it is equiangular. • Each angle of an equilateral triangle measures 60⁰. 60° 60° 60°
Example 1 Find x and y. y x 130°
Example 2 Find x and y. x 70° 70° y 5
Example 3 Find x and y. 12 xy 3x
