so than these two lateral sides are congruent how you name this triangle ?

jhonyy9:

and from this what result than these two lateral sides are congruent ? how are these two angles of the base ?

jhonyy9:

you dont know it ?

jhonyy9:

please collaborate - i like help you

jhonyy9:

so this is an isoscelle triangle with two lateral sides congruent and from this result that these two angles of the base are congruent too so with this knowladge you can writing that 2x = 50 => x = ?

CC12:

Sorry i was doing the problem

jhonyy9:

so x = 50/2 = 25 than you know that thes sum of measure of angles of the base is equal 50+50 =100 so how many degree has the 3rd angle ?

jhonyy9:

courage please i m here to help you

CC12:

Is this how you solve it the triangle add to 180 degrees <a + <b + <c =180 50 + 50 + <c = 180 add like terms 100 + <c = 180 subtract 100 from each side <c = 180-100 <c = 80 <c = 5y+ 10 80 = 5y+10 subtract 10 from each side 80 -10 = 5y+10-10 80-10 = 5y 70 = 5y divide by 5 70/5 =5y/5

Y=14

jhonyy9:

exactly very nice

CC12:

Sorry i wasnt responding i was just figuring it out

jhonyy9:

ok this mean that you know it how you can solve it right - congrat
