You can put this solution on YOUR website! If in a triangle xy=xz and angle y=60,then angle x is equal to ?
---
Draw the picture.
You have an isosceles triangle with equal sides xy and xz.
---
Angle y is opposite the side xz.
---
The vertex angle is y = 60 degrees, so each of the
base angles is (1/2)(180-60) = (1/2)(120) = 60 degrees.
---
Ans: Angle x = 60 degrees.
