In the triangle ABC, sides AB and AC are equal. 

We know that angles opposite to equal sides are also equal.

Thus,            \angle B\ =\ \angle C

Also, the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180^{\circ}.

So, we have :

                                      \angle A\ +\ \angle B\ +\ \angle C\ =\ 180^{\circ}

or                                                   90^{\circ} +\ 2\angle B\ =\ 180^{\circ}

or                                                                    \angle B\ =\ 45^{\circ}

Hence                        \angle B\ =\ \angle C\ =\ 45^{\circ}
