Two isosceles triangles with congruent vertex angles are similar because their angle measurements are the same. ;

The two isosceles triangles are similar because they have congruent vertex angles and the base angles are equal as well. This results in all corresponding angles being equal, satisfying the Angle-Angle (AA) criterion for similarity. Therefore, the two triangles must be similar by definition.
