Question:

One of the angles of a triangle is 108°, and the other two angles are equal. What is the measure of each of these equal angles?

Options:

36°

72°

78°

39°

Correct Answer:

36°

Explanation:

Let us consider three angles of a triangle ABC = ∠A , ∠B & ∠C

Let us consider ∠A = 108º  & ∠B = ∠C

So,

108º  + ∠B + ∠C = 180º

2∠B = 72º

∠B = 36º 

SO, One of these angles is 36º
