Okay, so since B is equidistant from A as C is from A, we can also assume that C is as far from X as B is

deathbed15:

im confused

darkknight:

So the distance from A to B is 10 units right? Since C is as far from A as B is, then the distance from A to C is also 10.

darkknight:

Assuming the angle XAB equals angle XAC, then we can also say that the distance from B to X equals the distance from C to X, or 10 units

deathbed15:

so the angles would be the same measurement correct?

darkknight:

yes that would be a correct assumption,

deathbed15:

oh ok thanks
