Construct △ABC with AB=3 in. , AC=3 in. , and m∠A=60°
What is the length of BC, if it could be measured?

If one draws this, it appears first to be an isosceles triangle with the two sides around angle A being the same length, 3 inches.
But, if A is 60 deg, angles B and C have to be equal, and each of those is 60 degrees.
This is an equilateral triangle so BC is 3 inches.
