Question 626471
I have a diagram of an isosceles triangle The verticals A and B are shown to be congruent. The only information that is given is the angel of A It is 96 deg. The practice question asks for the values of the angles for B and C.
       B/\
       /  \
      /    \
 96  /______\C

How can I find B and C?
I am in 10th grade trying to get ready for the next school year. Sorry the triangle did not come out to well on the email


Since angle A = {{{96^o}}}, and this is an isosceles triangle, then the sum of the congruent angles = 180 - 96, or {{{84^o}}}. Thus, angle B & C measure {{{84/2}}}, or {{{highlight_green(42^o)}}} each.
