Name the legs of isosceles triangle \( \triangle PMQ \).

Identify the isosceles triangle.

The isosceles triangle is \( \triangle PMQ \), where \(\overline{MP} = \overline{MQ}\).

Identify the legs.

The legs of an isosceles triangle are the two equal sides. In \( \triangle PMQ \), the legs are \(\overline{MP}\) and \(\overline{MQ}\).

\(\boxed{\overline{MP}, \overline{MQ}}\)

Name the base of isosceles triangle \( \triangle PMQ \).

Identify the isosceles triangle.

The isosceles triangle is \( \triangle PMQ \), where \(\overline{MP} = \overline{MQ}\).

Identify the base.

The base of an isosceles triangle is the side that is not equal to the other two. In \( \triangle PMQ \), the base is \(\overline{PQ}\).

\(\boxed{\overline{PQ}}\)

Name the hypotenuse of right triangle \( \triangle PNM \).

Identify the right triangle.

The right triangle is \(\triangle PNM \) since \(\overline{MN} \perp \overline{OP}\).

Identify the hypotenuse.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is the side opposite the right angle. In \( \triangle PNM \), the hypotenuse is \(\overline{MP}\).

\(\boxed{\overline{MP}}\)

\(\overline{MP}, \overline{MQ}\) \(\overline{PQ}\) \(\overline{MP}\)
