Hello,

I want to make a triangle exactly this shape; 72 degree by 72 degree by 72 degree. What should be the best way to proceed?

Thanks for helping.

You cannot construct a triangle with those angles (72°x72°x72°). Your title states you want one 36°x72°x72°, that is easily done. Draw a line segment, option/alt click on one endpoint with the rotate tool, enter 36° and click on the copy button. Join the points at the corner and then join the other two endpoints.

Thanks Jseckman,
Indeed the proportions stated in the title were the ones that I wanted.
Your tip works great.
