Geometry Legs are congruent Isosceles Triangle Vertex Angle Base Angles Legs Theorem 43 Isosceles Triangle Thm If two sides of a triangle are congruent then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. Equilateral Triangles Figure 1 Recall the wellknown theorem of van Schooten Theorem 1 If ABC is an equilateral triangle and is a point on the arc BC of ABC then MA MB MC Proof Use Ptolemy on the cyclic quadrilater Classifying Triangles by Angles. ACUTE. OBTUSE. RIGHT. EQUIANGULAR. ACUTE TRIANGLE. All interior angles are acute (or have a measure less than 90°). Interior Angle. Example of Acute Triangle. Phineas’s. Sec: . 4.5. Sol: G.5. Properties of Isosceles Triangles. An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two congruent sides.. The congruent sides are called legs and the third side is called the base.. 3. Symmetry. The image is exactly the same on both sides… therefore it is reflected across the line of symmetry.. WARM UP:. Draw lines of Symmetry for the shapes on the worksheet. MOST lines of Symmetry.
