Isosceles triangle angles
How it works.
base=baseandsum=180°
180−100=80
x=80°
- 01
The two ticked sides are equal, so the two base angles are equal — and the three angles still add to 180°.
- 02
Both base angles are 50°, so together they are 100°. The apex is what is left of 180°: 180 − 100 = 80.
- 03
So x = 80°.
