1. In an isosceles triangle, two sides and the angles opposite them are equal.
2. The sum of angles in any triangle is

180^\circ

.
3. Let the measure of the equal angles be

x

.
4. The equation is

2x + 30 = 180

.
5. Solve for

x

:

2x = 150 \\

x = \frac{150}{2} = 75

.

6. The measurement of the equal angles is

75^\circ

.
