How do I sketch and label an isosceles acute triangle ACT with AC=CT?

Answer 1

do you know what an isosceles triangle is?

Answer 2

Yeah I do. Its just that the AC=TC part confused me.

Answer 3

I meant CT

Answer 4

right, well those are just labels for the vertex points, that is where each side meets, well, draw one here :), use the whiteboard

Answer 5

lemme give you 3 segments so you can assemble them

Answer 6

Something like this/?

Answer 7

yeap, in a isosceles triangle, only 2 sides have to be EQUAL
now, none of the INTERNAL ANGLES in the triangle are 90 degrees or more than 90 degrees, all 3 angles are less than 90 degrees, that means all angles are ACUTE
that makes it an ACUTE ISOSCELES triangle

so which 2 sides are equal?

Answer 8

AC AND CT
