can you see the isosceles triangle ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

notice how that bisecting vertical line must be perpendicular to the base

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right, so how will this helo me find the values of x and y?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

well if you know what perpendicular mean you'll get \(x°\), and then you just need to use that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, to get \(y°\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean by the first thing?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

perpendicular means there is a right angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay
