Answer:

According to the "Triangle TheOrem", a triangles interior angles are always a 180°.

Therefore, to find the last remaining angle of the triangle, you will have to find the measure of the bottom angles (65° + 65° = 130°) THEN subtract 180° by 130°

65° + 65° = 130° (measures of the two bottom angles)

180° - 130° (to find the remaining angle!) = 50°

ANSWER = 50°

Hope I helped! ^^
