Well the three angles in a triangle all add up to 180° so if you add the two known angles and take it away from 180 you'll get your unknown angle.

Since the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180°, and a right angle has a measure of 90°, it follows that the other two angles together have a measure of 90°.
two opposite interior angles.
The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is equal to the measure of each of its base angles. Therefore, if one of the base angles measures 42 degrees, then the vertex angle also measures 42 degrees.
The angle measure of a triangle is dependent on the type of triangle (scalene, right, isosceles, or equilateral) and also the measures of the other two angles.In a scalene, none of the angles can be predicted without a protractor because none of the angles are equal.In a right triangle only one angle can be undoubtedly determined, the 90° angle (right angle). Knowing this angle's measure, this only limits the possible angle measures of the other two angles. (They must each be less than 90°, but together sum up to 90°)If you know one of the base angles of an isosceles triangle, by the Isosceles Triangle Base Angles Theorem, the other base angle will be congruent. To find the last angle, add the base angles together and then subtract that number from 180.The only triangle that has angle measures that can be determined just by its name is an equilateral, all angle measures equal 60°.
Its 2 equal base angles will each measure 65 degrees
