Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

let x be the measure of the congruent angles, then

x + x + 100 = 180, that is

2x + 100 = 180 ( subtract 100 from both sides )

2x = 80 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 40

Thus the measure of one of the congruent angles is 40°
