Ben=x
Amy=x-24
x-24/x = 3/5
5x-120 = 3x
5x-3x = 120
2x=120
X= 60
Ben = 60
Amy = 60-24 = 36

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle measures 64 degrees. What is the measure of its base angles?
Dvinal [7]
So hmmm check the picture below

in an isosceles triangle, two sides are equal, and thus the angles those twin legs make, are also twin angles

let's say the angle made is "a", so all internal angles will be 64 + a + a = 180
or 64 + 2a = 180

thus 2a = 180 - 64 => 2a = 116, thus a = 116/2
