I feel really confused on how I'm just not getting this question, I just got introduced to this in basic Geometry and my assignment has us watch a video about the isosceles triangle theorem. And I'm understanding every question but these two just don't make sense to me. The video never showed an example like this and I've watched it over like 3 times and I'm not understanding these questions. Could anybody help at least point me in the right direction?
