The figure below shows a partially completed construction of an obtuse isosceles triangle. Points P and L represent two vertices of the triangle. Where should the point for the third vertex lie? between O and L and on the arc between O and L and beyond the arc between O and M and beyond the arc between O and M and on the arc

whats obtuse whats isosceles ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

one is angle classification, and the other is side classification, right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Isoscolese triangle has 2 congruent sides. Obtuse angle is < 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Obtuse angle is greater than 90 degrees

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats right !

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lets see hw to construct it

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at the pix, already they plotted two vertices of trianlge, P and L

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

question is asking to find where the 3rd vertex of triangle goes
