    The document discusses properties of isosceles triangles. It states that a triangle with two equal sides is called an isosceles triangle. It also states that if two sides of a triangle are equal, then the angles opposite the equal sides are equal. This property is shown in Figure 1, and the converse of this property is also true - if two opposite angles are equal, then the two sides must be equal as well.
