...Hence every equilateral triangle is likewise equiangular, and the contrary. (315) COROLLARY III. A line drawn from the vertex of an isosceles triangle...middle of the base, is perpendicular to the base. For the two sides FB and BC are equal to the two sides FA and AC, and the angle FBC is equal, to the... | |
