Triangle ABC is an isosceles right triangle. What is the measure of one base angle?

A triangle’s angles add up to 180°. In an isosceles right triangle, one angle is 90°, so the other two angles add up to 90°. Those two base angles are equal, so each measures 90° ÷ 2 = 45°. The correct choice is 45º.
