There is a special property about the base angles of an isosceles triangle--they are equal.
Triangles interior angles add up to 180.
@Abhisar summed it up pretty well. Just remember what I said.
Now it's all a matter of seeing which one is larger, that would be Column B.
OpenStudy (abhisar):
@AnonymousBeast Thnx for the compliment !
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thank you @Abhisar and @AnonymousBeast. do either of yall know the second one

Oh, I see it.
OpenStudy (abhisar):
All sides are equal in an equilateral triangle !
OpenStudy (abhisar):
So just equate the three equations
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You can basically set them equal to each other and solve for one at a time. I would first do:
5x-2=6x-10
^^^Solve for x.
Then, replace x into the following and solve for c.
5x-2=4x+c

im confused lol

An equilateral triangle has all 3 sides equal. So, we know for sure that
5x-2=6x-10 since they represent side lengths. That gives us the ability to make them equal to each other. Combine like terms and solve for x. I will do the first for you.
5x-2=6x-10
Add 10
5x+8=6x
Subtract 5x
8=x
x=8
Now, substitute 8 into the second set I gave you and solve for c.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it checked out
now what
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What'd you get for c?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
