Solution

The diagram you've uploaded depicts an isosceles triangle with two bold equal sides and two congruent angles opposite these sides. This illustration suggests the Isosceles Triangle Theorem, which states:

If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent.

In this diagram, the bold lines represent the congruent sides of the triangle, which form the basis of the theorem's hypothesis. Thus, the answer to your question is likely:
