4-5: Isosceles and Equilateral Triangles. Isosceles Triangles – 2 sides congruent. A. Legs – the two congruent sides Base – the 3 rd side (not congruent) Vertex Angle – angle included between the two legs
E N D
Isosceles Triangles – 2 sides congruent A • Legs – the two congruent sides • Base – the 3rd side (not congruent) • Vertex Angle – angle included between the two legs • Base Angles – the other two angles (each is included between a leg and the base) C B
Isosceles Triangles • The base angles are always congruent (the angles across from the legs) • The bisector of the vertex angle is also the perpendicular bisector of the base.
