Question

Explain: every equilateral triangle is isosceles, but not every isosceles triangle is equilateral

Answer 1

By definition an isosceles triangle has AT LEAST 2 equal sides and AT LEAST 2 equal angles. In an equilateral triangle, all 3 sides and angles are equal. Since 3 is at least 2, an equilateral triangle is also an isosceles triangle. An isosceles triangle does not have to have 3 equal sides and angles (which is equilateral), so that means an isosceles triangle may not be equilateral.

Answer 2

okay, in isosceles triangle two sides are equal and in equilateral triangle all sides are equal.
so in a equilateral triangle amy two sides can be equal, but in isosceles triangle all the three sides can't be equal.
