Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the size of 1 of the 2 congruent angles.
The size of the other congruent angle is also x.
Since sum of angles in a triangle = 180°,
Measure of 3rd angle in the triangle
= 180° – 1st angle – 2nd angle
= (180 – 2x)°.
Answer:
The Isosceles Triangle Theorem, All interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. Basically the equation would be (angle 1) + (angle 2) + (angle 3) = 180. whichever angle you dont have you replace with x and solve for it. For example if you had a triangle with two congruent angles of 36 then it would be 36+36+x=180 and you would solve it like any other equation eventually showing you that x = 108. it also works backwards if you are trying to solve for the 2 missing congruent angles.
