Given - a right angle triangle with two interior congruent angles.
To find - measure of one of the two congruent angle.
Solution - let the congruent angle of the triangle be x.
congruent angles are the angles that have same measure.
∴congruent angle = x
we know, the sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180°.
right angle of a triangle = 90°
∴ 90° + x + x = 180°
or, 90° + 2x = 180 °
or, 2x = 180° - 90°
or, 2x = 90°
or, x = 90°/2
or, x = 45°
hence, the value of one of the two congruent angle is 45°
