How to solve
In an isosceles triangle the angles opposite the congruent sides (the base angles) are equal, so vertex angle + 2 × base angle = 180°. An equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three 60° angles. Set equal parts equal to each other (or to 60°), solve for x, and substitute if needed.
Example
△ABC is isosceles with AB = AC and m∠A = 92°. Find m∠B.
Answer: 44°
Not quite. The answer is
💡 By the Base Angles Theorem, AB = AC means m∠B = m∠C. The angles of a triangle add to 180°, so 2 × m∠B = 180° − 98° = 82°. Divide by 2: m∠B = 82° ÷ 2 = 41°.
✓ Correct!
