Question: 595

6. x =

  • A. 8
  • B. 30
  • C. 50
  • D. 65

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

All triangles have a total of 180o. This triangle is isosceles since two sides are equal. This means that the two angles opposite the sides are equal as well. Therefore, there are two angles that equal 65o. 65o + 65o = 130o. The remaining side is 50o since 180 - 130 = 50. The correct answer is (C).
