1. Problem Description

We are given an isosceles triangle with one angle equal to 5858^\circ. The two other angles, mm and nn, are equal in size. We want to find the size of angle mm.

2. Solution Steps

The sum of the angles in any triangle is 180180^\circ.
We know that one angle is 5858^\circ, and the other two angles, mm and nn, are equal.
So we have:
m+n+58=180m + n + 58^\circ = 180^\circ.
Since m=nm = n, we can rewrite the equation as:
m+m+58=180m + m + 58^\circ = 180^\circ.
2m+58=1802m + 58^\circ = 180^\circ.
Subtract 5858^\circ from both sides:
2m=180582m = 180^\circ - 58^\circ.
2m=1222m = 122^\circ.
Divide both sides by 2:
m=1222m = \frac{122^\circ}{2}.
m=61m = 61^\circ.

3. Final Answer

The size of angle mm is 6161^\circ.
