The angles opposite to equal sides of an isosceles triangle are _______.
Consider an isosceles triangle ΔABC with equal sides AB and AC as shown in the following figure.
Construction: AD is a bisector of ∠A.
In ΔABD and ΔACD
AB=AC as given.
∠BAD=∠DAC
AD=AD [Common side]
Thus, By SAS, we say that ΔABD≅ΔACD
Therefore, ∠ABD=∠ACD
Hence, the angles opposite to equal sides of an isosceles triangle are equal.
