Given :

Two sides of a triangle are congruent

To Prove :

The angles opposite to the two sides are congruent.

Proof :

Let the two sides AC and BC and angle opposite to them be ∠A and ∠B.

Let D be the midpoint of AB

Join C and D

Since D is the midpoint of AB

 \sf \implies AD ≅ BD

We have,

CD ≅ CD (common)

It is given that AC ≅ BC

Therefore, by SSS,

ΔACD ≅ ΔBCD

By CPCT,

∠A ≅ ∠B

Hence, proved!

Answer:

Proved: The angles opposite to them are  congruent If two sides of a triangle are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given information, we assume a triangle ABC with two sides congruent named AC and AB. As shown in the figure in the attached image.

Where D is the midpoint on the line BC,

Now, the angle opposite to the side AB be ∠C and the angle opposite to the side AC be ∠B.

With the help of the midpoint D, now we have two triangles named ΔABD and ΔACD.

Now, we have a common perpendicular named AD in both the triangles.

And we already have two sides congruent named AC and AB.

As the perpendicular AD divides  ∠A into two equal parts and the perpendicular remains the same in both tringles ΔABD and ΔACD.

Now, in the triangle,  ABD we get ∠B = 180-A-D , and same in the triangle, ACD we get ∠C = 180-A-D.

Thus  ∠C is congruent with ∠B hence proved.
