Answer:

X=71 degrees

Explanation:

Because it's an isosceles triangle, the length of two side should be same. Which means two of the angle should also be the same. Therefore, with that information we can get

2x+38=180

Move 38 to the other side

2x=142

Move "2" to another side by divide both side by 2

x=71

Now you get the answer.

That is a isosceles triangle, therefore x and the top angle are the same.

There’s 180 degrees in a triangle.

Therefore:

(180 - 38)/2 = x
142/2 = x
71 = x
