Isosceles Triangle Base Angles Theorem
In an isosceles triangle, the base angles are congruent.
Remember how I said you can't use Angle­Side­Side?
There's an exception...with Right Triangles.
First, some vocabulary.
leg
hypotenuse ­ the side opposite the right angle
leg ­ one of the sides next to the right angle
