Question

Chila is measuring a triangle. First, she measures the triangle's angles. Each of the triangle's angles is 60 degrees. Next, she measures its sides. Side A is 6 cm long. Side B is also 6 cm long. What is the length of side C?

Answer 1

Side C is also 6 cm long.

Explanation:

Given: Each of the triangle's angles is 60 degrees.

Also, side A is 6 cm long. Side B is also 6 cm long.

To find: length of side C

Solution:

A triangle in which each angle is equal to 60 degrees is an equilateral triangle.

As each of the triangle's angles is 60 degrees, the given triangle is an equilateral triangle.

Sides of an equilateral triangle are equal to each other.

As side A is 6 cm long and side B is also 6 cm long,

side C is also 6 cm long.
