By the angle sum property the 3 angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees.
 
The sum of two right angles is 180 degrees since
a right angle is 90 degrees and 90 + 90= 180 degrees
 
Since the sum of the 3 angles of a triangle is the same as the 
sum of two right angles then the sum of the three angles of
a triangle is equivalent to the sum of two right angles.

What this means is that since the sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180 degrees,
then that is the same as the sum of two right angles... 90 + 90 = 180
