let the two equal angles be x each
then the third angle is x+45
x + x + x+45 = 180
3x = 135
x = 45
so you have an isosceles right-angled triangle with angles of 45, 45, and 90
The flag of a country contains an isosceles triangle. (Recall that an isosceles triangle contains two angles with the same measure.) If the measure of the third angle of the triangle is 45° more than the measure of either of the other two angles, find the measure of each angle of the triangle. (Recall that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°.)
