In an equilateral triangle, all side lengths are equal and all angle measures are equal. What is the measure of your sketched triangle's three angles? it doesn't give me a picture or anything

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

a equillateral triangle

the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 degrees, and if the 3 angles are equal, then


\begin{gathered} x+x+x=180 \\ 3x=180 \end{gathered}

Step 2

Now, we need to find the value x


\begin{gathered} 3x=180 \\ \text{divide both sides by 3 to isolate x} \\ (3x)/(3)=(180)/(3) \\ x=60 \end{gathered}

it means in an equilateral triangle the angle is 60 degrees

In an equilateral triangle, all side lengths are equal and all angle measures are-example-1
