Question

Verify experimentally that if two sides of a triangle
are equal, then the angles opposite to them are also
equal. (Three figures are necessary)​

Answer 1

$\boxed{\huge\underline{\mathscr\purple{♡ANSWER♡}}}$

If two sides of a triangle are congruent , then the angles opposite to these sides are congruent.

∠P≅∠Q

Proof:

Let S be the midpoint of PQ¯¯¯¯¯ .

Join R and S .

Since S is the midpoint of PQ¯¯¯¯¯ , PS¯¯¯≅QS¯¯¯¯¯ .

By Reflexive Property ,

RS¯¯¯¯¯≅RS¯¯¯¯¯

It is given that PR¯≅RQ¯¯¯¯¯

Therefore, by SSS ,

Therefore, by SSS ,ΔPRS≅ΔQRS

Since corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent,

∠P≅∠Q

The converse of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem is also true.

If two angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are congruent.

If ∠A≅∠B , then AC¯≅BC¯¯¯¯¯ .
