Explanation:
To be certain I understand your question correctly, you have a triangle, where you with "measures" mean number of degrees each angle is.
I.e. let the triangle look something like this:
If
Then
And
If my understanding of your question is correct, we have
Therefore
This gives
Or
The angles in the triangle, therefore, are
I.e.
Then
And
This gives the following triangle:
