help please

Column A 180-58=122, 122/2=61
Column B 180-116=64
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.
@AnonymousBeast Thnx for the compliment !
ok thank you @Abhisar and @AnonymousBeast. do either of yall know the second one
What is the second one?
Oh, I see it.
All sides are equal in an equilateral triangle !
So just equate the three equations
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.
ok
it checked out now what
What'd you get for c?
6
There you go, x=8 c=6. You have your answer.
thanks
You're welcome.
