Finding Missing Angles in Isosceles Triangles

The video tutorial explains how to apply the angle sum theory and properties of isosceles triangles to solve problems. It begins by identifying two isosceles triangles and focuses on calculating unknown angles using known values and properties of isosceles triangles. The tutorial demonstrates how to use the angle sum property and simple subtraction to find missing angles, emphasizing the relationship between equal sides and equal angles in isosceles triangles.

What type of triangles are identified in the problem?

• Right triangles

• Isosceles triangles

• Scalene triangles

• Equilateral triangles

What is the significance of the two equal sides in an isosceles triangle?

• They indicate the triangle has two equal angles.

• They indicate the triangle has a right angle.

• They indicate the triangle is scalene.

• They indicate the triangle is equilateral.

If two angles in an isosceles triangle are 44°, what is the measure of the third angle?
