5. Find mR. Since QP = QR, QP QR. By the Isosceles Triangle Theorem, base angles P and R are congruent, so mP = mR . Use the Triangle Sum Theorem to write and solve an equation to find mR. Triangle Sum Theorem mQ = 60, mP = mR Simplify. Subtract 60 from each side. Answer: mR = 60 Divide each side by 2.

6. Find PR. Since all three angles measure 60, the triangle is equiangular. Because an equiangular triangle is also equilateral, QP = QR = PR. Since QP = 5, PR = 5 by substitution. Answer: PR = 5 cm

B. Find TS. A. 1.5 B. 3.5 C. 4 D. 7
13
7. Find the value of each variable.
mDFE = 60 4x – 8 = 60 4x = 68 x = 17 The triangle is equilateral, so all the sides are congruent, and the lengths of all of the sides are equal. DF = FE 6y + 3 = 8y – 5 3 = 2y – 5 8 = 2y 4 = y
14
8. Find the value of each variable.
A. x = 20, y = 8 B. x = 20, y = 7 C. x = 30, y = 8 D. x = 30, y = 7
