Given:

Angle opposite to base = 30°

And, two side have equal length of 4 cm

So, it is an isosceles triangle. So, it will have same angles.

We let the remaining angle be x°

Then, 

x° + x° + 30° = 180°

2x ° = 180° - 30°

2x = 150°

x = 150°/2

x = 75°

 

Hence, measures of 3 sides of triangle are 30°, 75° and 75°
