	Math Example--Solving Equations--Solving Equations Using Triangle Properties: Example 1	Solving Equations Using Triangle Properties: Example 1 Topic Equations Description This example focuses on solving equations using the properties of similar isosceles triangles. Isosceles triangles are characterized by having two equal sides and two equal base angles. In this case, we have two similar isosceles triangles, which means they share the same shape but may differ in size. The equation to be solved involves finding the unknown angle x, given that one of the angles is 20°. The property of vertical angles tells us that the angle vertical to the 20° angle is also 20°	Applications of Equations and Inequalities and Applications of Triangles
