Question

Prove that measure of each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60o.

Open in App
Solution

Let ABC be an equilateral triangle. Then,

AB=BC=CA

Since angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal.

AB=BC and BC=CA

C=A and A=B

A=B=C

But, A+B+C=180o

Therefore, 3A=180o

A=60o

Hence, A=B=C=60o
