    Question

    In an isosceles triangle, the vertex angle measures 76°. What is the measure of each ofthe base angles?

    A.

    32° and 49°

    B.

    55° and 49°

    C.

    52° and 52°

    D.

    43° and 62°

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    The vertex angle of the isosceles triangle = 76°

    Formula Used:

    In an isosceles triangle, the sum of the base angles and the vertex angle is 180°.

    If the vertex angle is θ, then the base angles (each of them x) can be found using the formula:

    2x + θ = 180°

    Solution:

    The vertex angle = 76°

    Substitute this into the equation:

    2x + 76° = 180°

    2x = 180° - 76° = 104°

    x = 104° / 2 = 52°

    Each equal angle = 52°
