Given ABC is isosceles. Prove m<A=m<B.Proof:
1.) Definition of Isosceles
2.)Defn. of bisect
1.) AC=BC
*Construct CD so that it bisects <C*2.)m<ACD=m<BCD3.) CD=CD
3.) reflexive property

Isosceles Triangle Theorem:If 2 sides of a triangle are congruent, then
the base angles are congruent as well.
Converse:If the base angles of a triangle are
congruent, then the 2 opposite legs of the triangle are congruent as well.
What kind of statement is this?

Corollaries (small theorem that follow a big theorem)•An equilateral triangle is also equiangular.
•An equiangular triangle has all 60 angles.

Perpendicular bisector:
•Draw an isosceles triangle•Bisect the vertex•What do you notice about the intersection of the bisector and the base?

Corollary 3
The bisector of the vertex of an isosceles triangle is a perpendicular bisector of the base.
(divides the base in half and is perpendicular to the base)
