Answer:

Two 30°-60°-90° triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle always has three 60° angles. If you were to cut it in half with a perpendicular bisector, two 90° angles would be made with the perpendicular lines, two 30° angles would be made from the corner that the bisector cut in half, and two of the three 60° degree angles would have remained untouched.
