NOTE: < = Angle ^ = Degrees 1. Vertical angles are equal. <a = <b :RA :SD :SB :SH1828A B :SH0933C :SP196136252136224072193136 :SF 2. An isosceles triangle has two sides equal in length. The angle between the equal sides is called the vertex angle. The other two angles are called base angles and are equal. If AC = BC, then <A = <B 3. If two angles of a triangle are equal, the sides opposite are equal. If <A = <B, then AC = BC. :RA :SD :SB :SH1531A B :SH0735C :SH14311 :SP190112266112243080217112 :SF 4. An equilateral triangle (ABC) is equiangular, and an equiangular triangle is equilateral. If AB = BC = AC, then <A = <B = <C 5. An exterior angle of a triangle is the sum of the non-adjacent interior angles. <1 = <B + <C :RA :SD :Q :SB :SH0618A B :SH0540D :SH0328C :SH0740E :SP266039112039174024266048 :SF 1.

Then, (a) AB = AC (b) AB = BC (c) AC = BC (d) AC = BE (e) AB = AC = BC :RCB 5. (b) AB = BC Ans. Since <ACB and <CBE are alternate interior angles, they are equal. The sum of the angles around a point on one side of a straight line is 180^. <CBA + <CBE + <EBD = 180^ <CBE = <EBD <CBA = 180^ - 2 <CBE <CBA = 180^ - 2 <ACB :RA The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180^ <CAB + <ACB + <CBA = 180^ <CAB = 180^ - <ACB - <CBA <CAB = 180^ - <ACB - (180^ - 2<ACB) <CAB = <ACB Since sides opposite equal angles are equal, AB = BC Ans. :SD :ET :ET
