Work Step by Step

Draw KM, a bisector of the base HJ. Given: KH ≅ KJ, b.KM bisects HJ Prove: 𝑚∠H ≅ 𝑚∠J KM bisects HJ - c. Given HM ≅ JM - d. Definition of Bisector KH ≅ KJ - Given KM ≅ KM - e. Reflexive Property of Congruence △KHM ≅ △KJM - f. Postulate 4-1 Side-Side-Side (SSS) Postulate 𝑚∠H ≅ 𝑚∠J - g. Theorem 4-3 Isosceles Triangle Theorem
