Triangles – Congruence Theorems

Checkpoint: converse, counter-example and bisector

Four ideas since the last checkpoint, one question on each. Retry any time.

A triangle has two equal angles. What follows?

A claim has passed a hundred honest tries. Then one case fails. What is the claim worth now?

One triangle has sides 6, 8, 10. Another has sides 9, 12, 15. Are they congruent?

In an isosceles triangle, the apex bisector meets a base of 10. How long is each piece of the base?
