Question

One angle of an isosceles triangle measures 76º. Which other angles could be in that

isosceles triangle? Choose all that apply.

Answer 1

52 or 28

Explanation:

An isosceles has 2 congruent angles.

There are 2 possibilities:

A) There are two 76-deg angles and one angle of a different measure.

76 + 76 + x = 180

x = 28

B) There are two congruent angles, and 76 is the non-congruent angle.

x + x + 76 = 180

2x = 104

x = 52

Answer: 52 or 28
