Let the vertical angle be x
Then each base angle = 2x
Remember that sum of the 3 angles of the triangle = 180
i.e. 2x + 2x + x = 180
5x = 180
x = 180/5 = 36 deg
Vertical angle = 36 degrees
Each base angle = 36*2 = 72 degrees.

-----------------
Triangles have angles. Angels (which don't exist) have wings. There's no connection.

Vertical is not an angle, it's a direction.
