Let the required ratio be 2x : 5x. Then,
verticle angle (⟨1) = 2x
a base angle (⟨2) = 5x
We know that,
in isosceles triangle, the two base angle are equal.
So, other base angle (⟨3) = 5x
Applying Angle Sum property of triangles,
⟨1 + ⟨2 + ⟨3 = 180°
=>2x + 5x + 5x = 180°
=> 12x = 180°
=> x = 180°/12
=> x = 15°
therefore,
⟨1 = 2x15° = 30°
⟨2 =. 5x 15° = 75°
⟨3 = 5x15° = 75°
