The angle opposite the base angles of an isosceles triangle?
Vertex angle
What are the name of angles which are opposite to vertex angle in an isosceles triangle?
They're the 'base angles'.
Does the angle bisector in a triangle bisect the opposite side?
Not necessarily. The only time that the angle bisector would bisect the opposite side is if you were bisecting the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the side opposite that vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. The median only bisects the vertex angle from which it is drawn when it is an isosceles triangle.
What is the side opposite the vertex angle of an isoscles?
If you mean the vertex where the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle intersect, the side is the base.

Does isosceles triangle have a vertex angle?
yes they do
What is the side opposite the vertex angle of an isoscles?
If you mean the vertex where the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle intersect, the side is the base.
What is the angle of an isosceles triangle?
The two angles that are not the isosceles vertex are equal.
Does the angle bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle divides the triangle into two congruent?
Only if the vertex angle being bisected is between the sides of equal length will the result be two congruent triangles.
The equal angles of an isosceles triangle?
To find the equal angels, base angles, of an isosceles triangle and you know the vertex angle, 180-vertex angle and then divide by two.
An angle not congruent to the base angles of an isosceles triangle?
The base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is not necessarily congruent to the base angles.
The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is twice as large as one of the base angles Find the measure of the vertex angle?
90 degrees. This is an isosceles right triangle, standing on its hypotenuse.
What is the angle opposite the base angles of an isosceles triangle?
The third angle of an isosceles triangle doesn't have a name.
