Prove that an equilateral triangle is equiangular
Given: Equilateral triangle PQR
To Prove: ∠P ≅ ∠Q ≅∠R
Proof: PQ ≅ PR ……….[all sides of an equilateral triangle are congruent.]
∠Q ≅ ∠R [the angles opposite to the two congruent sides of a triangle are congruent (Isosceles Triangle Theorem)]
PQ ≅ QR [since all sides of an equilateral triangle are congruent.]
∠R ≅ ∠P, again, by the Isosceles Triangle Theorem
Now, since ∠Q ≅ ∠R and ∠R ≅ ∠P ,
So, ∠Q ≅ ∠P
Therefore, ∠P ≅ ∠Q.
So, equilateral triangles are equiangular.
