Answer:

75,75 & 30,120

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two correct answers for this question.

A triangle always measures up to be 180 degrees. If one angle is measured at 30 degrees that means we have to find 150 degrees worth of angles.

180-30=150

30+120=150, so that one is correct.

30+30=60, so this one is incorrect.

75+75=150, so this one is also correct.

30+100=130, this one is incorrect.

That leaves you with two correct answers, (75,75) & (30,120).

I hope this helps<333

Answer:


\displaystyle 75°\:and\:75°

Explanation:

Base angles are congruent in an isosceles triangles, therefore having this:


\displaystyle 180° = 30° + 150° \Rightarrow 180° = 30° + 2[75°]
