Answer:

x° = 123

Explanation:

this triangle is isoceles so it has 2 congruent angles.

let y be the second angle

the sum of a triangle's angle is 180°


180 = 66 + y + y \\180 = 66 + 2y

add
-66 to both sides


180 - 66 = 2y + 66 - 66 \\114 = 2y

divide both sides by 2


(114)/(2) = (2y)/(2)


57 = y

we khow that
x + y = 180


x + y = 180 \\x + 57 = 180

add -57 to both sides


x + 57 - 57 = 180 - 57 \\x = 123
