Question

Help please!



Prove that the sides opposite the congruent base angles of a triangle are congruent. Be sure to create and name the appropriate geometric figures.

Answer 1

I don't understand the question.

Answer 2

As AM is the median we BM=MC, MA=MA, and B=C, thus triangle are congruent.

As the triangles are congruent then their sides are congruent, thus AB=AC

Answer 3

or even more easier:

If base angles are congruent then triangle is isosceles, and thus AB=AC

Answer 4

I understood that completely, thank you.

Am I supposed to be proving the Converse of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem bascially?

Answer 5

yeah basically you do

Answer 6

Okay awesome! Thank you so much for your help! :)
