An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two equal side lengths and two equal angles.<ref>http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/geometry/gp6/Lisosceles.htm</ref> Sometimes you will need to draw an isosceles triangle given limited information. If you know the side lengths, base, and altitude, it is possible to do this with just a ruler and compass (or just a compass, if you are given line segments). Using a protractor, you can use information about angles to draw an isosceles triangle.
