Since all the sides are equal
Since all the sides are equal
equal sides
Since all the sides are equal
then the angles must be equal as well
Since all the sides are equal
then the angles must be equal as well
Since all the sides are equal
then the angles must be equal as well
Since all the sides are equal
then the angles must be equal as well
Since all the sides are equal
then the angles must be equal as well
Equal Angles
That means each angle must be 60 in an
