Question 1074104: A teacher instructed her students to draw an isosceles triangle that has at least one angle that measures 75� and exactly one side that measures 12 centimeters.
Using the teacher�s instructions, how many different triangles can be drawn that have the same angle and side measures? Enter your answer in the box.

At first I thought the answer was 4 such isosceles triangles.  
And I drew them to scale below.  But then I looked again and
noticed the words "exactly one side that measures 12 centimeters"
So I had to cross out the first and third triangles because they
have two sides equal to 12 centimeters. So the answer is 2.
