The two angles formed
by the base and one of
the congruent sides are
called base angles.

Base Angles Theorem
If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the
angles opposite them are congruent.
If AB  AC , then B  C
Converse of Base Angles
Theorem
If two angles of a triangle are congruent, then
the sides opposite them are congruent.
If B  C , then AB  AC
EXAMPLE 1
Apply the Base Angles Theorem
Find the measures of the angles.
SOLUTION
Q
P
Since a triangle has 180°, 180 – 30 =
150° for the other two angles.
Since the opposite sides are congruent,
angles Q and P must be congruent.
150/2 = 75° each.

SOLUTION
R
Since there are two congruent
sides, the angles opposite them
must be congruent also. Therefore,
12x + 20 = 20x – 4
20 = 8x – 4
Plugging back in, 24 = 8x
mP  12(3)  20  56
