ANSWER
Given two equal angle of isoscles triangle
are 55
∘
Let third angle be x then
x+55+55=180
∘
[angle sum property]
x=180−110
∘
(x=70
∘
)
∴ the other angle is 70
∘
8. One of the two equal angles of an isosceles triangle measures 65°, Find the measure of each angles.
65°, 65°, 50°
__________________________
Given :-
• One of the two equal angles of an isosceles triangle measures 65°
To Find :-
• Measure of each angles.
__________________________
★ We know that base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal.
So, another equal angle will be 65°.
• Let another angle be x
then,
★ 65 + 65 + x = 180
=> 130 + x = 180
=> x = 180 - 30
=> x = 50°
Hence, the value of other angle is 50°
∴ All angles of the isosceles triangle are 65°, 65° and 50° respectively.

9. Find the measure of each of the two equal angles of an isosceles right angled triangle.
45°, 45°
__________________________
Given :-
• An isosceles right triangle.
To Find :-
• Measure of each of the two equal angles of the triangle.
__________________________
★ We know that, in an isosceles right triangle two angles are equal and other angle is of 90°.
So, another angle will be 90°
• Let equal angles be x
Then,
★ x + x + 90 = 180
=> 2x + 90 = 180
=> 2x = 180 - 90
=> 2x = 90
=> x = 90/2
=> x = 45°
Hence, two equal angles of the traingle are 45° and 45° respectively.

10. If all the three angles of the triangle are of same measure, find the measure of each of the angles.
60°, 60°, 60°
__________________________
Given :-
• All three angles of a triangle are of same measure.
To Find :-
• Measure of each of the angles.
__________________________
★ We know that if all angles of a triangle are equal, then it will be an equilateral triangle.
So, all angles will be of same measure and it will be an equilateral triangle.
• Let equal angles be x.
Then,
★ x + x + x = 180
=> 3x = 180
=> x = 180/3
=> x = 60°
Hence, all angles of the triangle are 60°, 60° and 60°.

11. In a right-angled triangle if one of the acute angles measures 40°, find the measure of the other acute angles.
50°
__________________________
Given :-
• In a right triangle, one of the acute angles measures 40°
To Find :-
• Measure of other angles.
__________________________
★ We know that, in a right triangle there is an angle of 90°.
So, another one angle is of 90°.
Let another angle be x,
Then,
★ 40 + 90 + x = 180
=> x + 130 = 180
=> x = 180 - 130
=> x = 50°
