Question 1192515: can i get some help with this question.
If
VU ≅ VT and m∠V = 50°,
find m∠T (in degrees).
we have an ISOSCELES TRIANGLE and as we learned in earlier chapters all of the angles within a triangle MUST add to 180 degrees. So we have an equation Angle V + Angle U + Angle T = 180 , Furthermore, since we have an ISOSCELES triangle, one of the rules is the BASE ANGLES - Angle T and ANGLE U - are EQUAL (the same). If you do the substitution ,you will find the angular measure of Angle T, which is also the value of ANGLE U
