Answer:
72⁰, 72⁰ and 36⁰
Step-by-step explanation:
let 3rd angle be x
second and first angle be 2x
2x + 2x + x = 180⁰
5x = 180⁰
x = 180/5 = 36⁰
first and second angle is same and its angle is 2x = 2×36 = 72
so, third angle is 36⁰
72 + 72 + 36 = 180⁰
the angles of the triangle are 72⁰, 72⁰ and 36⁰

To Find:-
- The measure of each angle
Given:-
- The two angles of an isosceles triangle is twice the third angle
Solution:-
Let the triangle be ABC
We know that a triangle measures 180°
So,
Let the two equal angles be 2x and 2x respectively, and let the third angle be x.
According the question,
⟹ 2x + 2x + x = 180°
⟹ 4x + x = 180°
⟹ 5x = 180°
⟹ x = 180/5
⟹ x = 36°
- The measure of the angles are:-
⟹ 2x = 2 × 36° = 72°
⟹ 2x = 2 × 26° = 72°
⟹ x = 36°
Now, Verification
⟹ 72° + 72° + 36° = 180°
⟹ 144° + 36° = 180°
⟹ 180° = 180°
L.H.S = R.H.S
Hence, Proved.
