First of all, we draw a rough sketch.
Let the required triangle be ABC in which base angles {tex}\angle{/tex}B = 45° and  {tex}\angle{/tex}C = 60°, altitude AD =  2 cm.
Now, {tex}\angle{/tex}ADB = {tex}\angle{/tex}ADC = 90°
In {tex}\triangle{/tex}ADB, {tex}\angle{/tex}BAD = 180° – ({tex}\angle{/tex}ABD + {tex}\angle{/tex}ADB)
= 180° – (45° + 90°)
= 180° – 135°
= 45°
In {tex}\triangle{/tex}ADC, {tex}\angle{/tex}CAD = 180° – ({tex}\angle{/tex}ACD + {tex}\angle{/tex}ADC)
= 180° – (60° + 90°)
= 180° – 150°
= 30°
Now, we construct two triangles having common base AD = 2cm

{tex}\triangle{/tex}ABC is the required triangle whose altitude is 2 cm and base angles are 45° and  60°.
