What property of isosceles triangles is used in the proof?

• They have all angles equal

• They have no congruent sides

• They have two congruent sides and two congruent angles

• They have all sides equal

What does an angle bisector do in a triangle?

• It divides the triangle into two equal areas

• It creates a right angle

• It creates two congruent angles

• It bisects the opposite side

How can you denote congruent angles created by a bisector?

• Using different symbols

• Labeling them as angle 1 and angle 2

• Ignoring them in the proof
