option (2) is correct.

Angle L is a base angle and measures 72°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Triangle JKL is isosceles. The measure of angle J is 72° and the measure of angle K is 36°.

We have to choose the statement that correctly describes angle L.

ANGLE SUM PROPERTY of a triangle states that the sum of angle of a triangle is always 180°

Using angle sum property, we have,

⇒ ∠J + ∠K + ∠L = 180°

Substitute the values, we get,

⇒  72° + 36°  + ∠L = 180°

⇒  108°  + ∠L = 180°

⇒   ∠L = 180° - 108°

⇒   ∠L = 72°

In an isosceles triangle, two base angles are always equal.

Thus, L forms a base angle with measure 72°

Hence, option (2) is correct.
