How to draw an isosceles triangle

What is an isosceles triangle?

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two equal sides.

Step 1- Sharpen pencil

Draw a horizontal line, using a ruler, measuring approximately 4 centimetres long.

Horizontal means flat from left to right Eg. A rug

Now draw a vertical line measuring approximately 4 centimetres long.

Vertical means an upright structure Eg. Straight down

Now you want to draw a diagonal connecting the other two.

Make sure that the line measures exactly 5.7 centimetres

The decimal represents millimetres (a tenth of a centimetre)

This should be the final product.

Now that you've observed me create an isosceles triangle, I have a question.

Question 1- What is an isosceles triangle?
