Here, we have
angle A = angle B. .................... (1)
Now, exterior angle at C is 120°
So, angle C + 120° = 180°.
Or, angle C = 180 - 120 = 60°
Now, using the anglesum property of a
triangle, we have
angle A + angle B + angle C = 180
Or, angle A + angle A = 180 - 60 = 120 [since, angle A = angle B, from (1)]
Or, 2 * angle A = 120
Or, angle A = 120/2 = 60.
And angle B = angle A = 60°
Thus, in the triangle, all the angles are equal angle A = angle B = angle C
Hence, it is an equilateral triangle.

Answer:
angle c = 180°- 120° = 60°
angle a = angle b =x
therefore a+b+c = 180°
x+x+60°=180°
2x = 180°-60°
2x=120°
therefore, x=60°
