Pepe, as stated in the problem, the triangle is isosceles. There is nothing in the problem that says anything about right triangle. It only says in the explanation that it turns out the triangle is also equilateral, not just isosceles.

An isosceles triangle has at least two equal sides, but it can have three. When all sides are equal, it is also called an equilateral triangle.
In other words, all equilateral triangles are isosceles triangles, but not all isosceles triangles are equilateral.
