Since triangle LMN is isosceles, it means that LM = LN. Recall that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Let's call the measure of angle N as x degrees. Since angles L and M are both 36 degrees, we can write an equation for the sum of the interior angles of triangle LMN:
36 + 36 + x = 180
Simplifying the equation, we have:
72 + x = 180
Subtracting 72 from both sides, we have:
x = 180 - 72
x = 108
Therefore, the measure of angle M is 36 degrees and the measure of angle N is 108 degrees.
