let the angles be x.
3x + 4x + 4x = 180 (angle sum property of a triangle is 180 degrees.)
12x = 180
x = 180/12
x= 15
the angles are 45, 60 and 60
it is an isosceles triangle.

The information tells us that this triangle is an isosceles triangle meaning two sides and two angles are congruent. Also, this is not a right triangle as the only isosceles right triangle has a ratio of 1:1:2

Hope this helps!
