Congruent Isosceles Triangles Are Everywhere!



This is a picture of a bed frame.  The design of the metal frame forms an Isosceles triangles.  An  Isosceles Triangle has at least two congruent sides.  As you can tell, this object forms a triangle and has two congruent sides forming up to the apex of the triangle.  An Isosceles Triangle can be an acute, obtuse, equiangular, and even a right triangle! In this picture, the triangle is either an acute or equiangular isosceles triangle.  An Isosceles triangle is seen in everyday life in things such as: pizza slices, bicycle wheels, architectural structures, all the way to kaleidoscopes or even light rays!
