5.4 Isosceles and Equilateral Triangles
2
Isosceles Triangles leg leg base Vertex angle Base angle Base angle
2 sides are congruent 2 theorems If 2 sides are congruent, then base angles are congruent If 2 base angles are congruent, then sides are congruent Vertex angle leg leg Base angle base Base angle
3
Equilateral Triangles
Equilateral (all sides congruent) Equiangular (all angles congruent) Theorems If equilateral, then equiangular If equiangular, then equilateral

5
Using theorems to solve problems
6
Using theorems to solve problems
Since the triangle is isosceles, the base angles are congruent
7
Using theorems to solve problems
If equilateral, then equiangular Each angle is 60 degrees in an equiangular triangle
