Answer:

equilateral triangle

Step by Step Explanation:
  1. Let us keep in mind that the sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180°.
  2. In the given problem, we are told that two angles of a triangle are 60° each.
  3. The sum of the two known angles is 60° + 60° = 120°. The third angle can be found by subtracting the sum of two known angles from 180°. Thus, the third angle is 180° - 120° = 60°
  4. We just saw that even the third angle of this triangle is 60°. This means that all the three angles of the triangle are equal.
  5. Since, all the three angles of the triangle are equal, it is an equilateral triangle.
