A and R are both correct, and R is the correct explanation of A.

In an isosceles triangle ΔABC;

The side |AB| = |AC| implies that the base angles and sides of the triangle are equal and this can be seen in an isosceles triangle.

Given that:

  • A = a statement of assertion
  • R = reason

It is said that:

  • Assertion (A): In ΔABC, AB = AC:  if ∠B = 50°, then ∠C =  50°.
  • Reason (R): Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal.

We can see that the reason provided goes in line with the set rules for an isosceles triangle.

Therefore, we can conclude that the assertion A and reason R is both correct, and R is the correct explanation of A.
