If you are given that one angle of a triangle measures 0 degrees, what would be the measuremenrs of the other 2 angles?

I don't think you can have a triangle with one angle measuring 0 degrees. Zero degrees is a straight line, therefore not an angle.
kk, thanx, that's what i thought, but my physics teacher said it is possible. I don't understand.
Please check back here later tonight or tomorrow to see if a physics teacher has answered your question.
As one of the angle of a triangle approaches zero, the sum of the other two approaches 180 degrees. Since the figure becomes a very slender triangle, the other two angls either both approach 90 degrees (if it is an isosceles triangle), or 0 and 180 degrees.
Thank you, DrWLS.
