In an isosceles triangle, two of the angles are equal. The sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°.
Given that one angle measures 94°, we can denote the other two equal angles as \( x \).
The equation for the angles would be:
\[
94° + x + x = 180°
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
94° + 2x = 180°
\]
Subtracting 94° from both sides gives:
\[
2x = 86°
\]
Dividing by 2:
\[
x = 43°
\]
So, in this case, the measures of the other two angles must be 43° each.
Now, let's check the options provided:
- 61° (not possible)
- 94° (not possible because there can’t be three angles of 94°)
- 13° (not possible)
- 43° (possible)
Therefore, the only valid angles for the other two angles in this isosceles triangle are **43°**.
