Question -

Show that the angles of an equilateraltriangle are 60º each.



Answer -

Let us consider that ABC is an equilateral triangle.

Therefore, AB = BC = AC

AB = AC

C = B (Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal)

Also,

AC = BC

B = A (Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal)

Therefore, we obtain

A = B = C

In ΔABC,

A + B + C = 180°

A + A + A = 180°

3A = 180°

A = 60°

A = B = C = 60°

Hence, in an equilateral triangle, all interior anglesare of measure 60º
