1 3.7 Angle Side Theorems

2 Theorem 20: Isosceles Triangle Theorem (ITT) If 2 sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite the sides are congruent. A BC A BC Ifthen

3 Theorem 21: Converse Isosceles Triangle Theorem (CITT) If 2 angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite the angles are congruent. A BC A BC Ifthen

4 Can you prove theorems 20 &21? ITT can be proven using SSS by naming the triangle in a correspondence with itself. CITT can be proven using ASA by naming the triangle in a correspondence with itself. Special Note: for triangles, equilateral and equiangular will be used interchangeably.
