Since it is given that AB ≅ AC, it must also be true that AB = AC. Assume ∠B and ∠C are not congruent. Then the measure of one angle is greater than the other. If m∠B > m∠C, then AC > AB because of the triangle parts relationship theorem. For the same reason, if m∠B < m∠C, then AC < AB. This is a contradiction to what is given. Therefore, it can be concluded that ________.

@kaylie.sullivan can you please help me again?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you have any answer choices?

OpenStudy (cbarredo1):

AB ≠ AC ∠B ≅ ∠C ABC is not a triangle ∠A ≅ ∠B ≅ ∠C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm stumped, what do you think it is?

OpenStudy (cbarredo1):

I don;t understand triangles, it has a picture, i don't know if it'll help

I'd go with A.

OpenStudy (cbarredo1):

Ok, thanks

Triangle ABC is an isosceles right triangle. What is the measure of a base angle?

OpenStudy (cbarredo1):

Also, this would be 45, right?

Yep! 90-45-45
