Holt Geometry
4-8 Isosceles and Equilateral Triangles
In an Isosceles triangle, the congruent sides are
called the legs. The vertex angle is the angle
formed by the legs. The side opposite the vertex
angle is called the base, and the base angles are
the two angles that have the base as a side.
3 is the vertex angle.
1 and 2 are the base angles.

The Isosceles Triangle Theorem is
sometimes stated as “Base angles of an
isosceles triangle are congruent.”
