Question

Statement 1: All the angles of an equilateral triangle will always be equal.
Statement 2: Every angle of an equilateral triangle is ${60}^{\circ }$

• A. Statement 1 is true but Statement 2 is false.
• B. Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is also false.
• C. Statement 1 is true and Statement 2 is also true.
• D. Statement 1 is false but Statement 2 is true.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Statement 1 is true and Statement 2 is also true.

All the sides of an equilateral triangle are equal and in a triangle, equal sides have equal angles opposite to them. Therefore an equilateral triangle has all its angles equal and each angle is equal to ${60}^{\circ }$ as sum of all the angles in a triangle should be ${180}^{\circ }$ (${60}^{\circ }$+${60}^{\circ }$+${60}^{\circ }$= ${180}^{\circ }$)
