Answer:
Measures of angle x and y is 72°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Angle x and angle y are equale.
And measure of angle z is 36°
Let the angle x and y be a°
Then,
According to the question
Sum of angles of triangle = 180°
angle x + angle y + angle z = 180°
a + a + 36° = 180°
a + a = 180° - 36°
2a = 144°
a = 144°/2
a = 72°
angle x = a = 72°
angle y = a = 72°
ISOSCELES TRIANGLES
- Isosceles triangle is a triangle in which measures of two angles of triangle is equal.
- Then, two sides of this triangle is always equal.
- Sum of angles of triangle is 180°.
