    Answer:

    36°, 36°, 108°

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let the 2 congruent base angles of the isosceles triangle be x

    Then the vertex angle is 3x

    Sum the angles and equate to 180 ( angle sum of triangle )

    x + x + 3x = 180

    5x = 180 ( divide both sides by 5 )

    x = 36 , then

    3x = 3 × 36 = 108

    The angles are 36°, 36° and 108°
