This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Which of the following was not something King Charles did that angered many people

A. he married a Catholic

B. refused to give parliament power

C. became head of the Church of England

D. taxed the people

Answer: C. became head of the Church of England

Step-by-step explanation:

King Charles dissolved the parliament several times, and by 1629 he decided to rule without them, getting them increasingly angry. Furthermore, these actions required Charles to increase taxes, because parliamentary resources were not a possibility anymore. The raising of taxes made many more people angry. Finally, his marriage to a Catholic, Henrietta Maria of France, made many members of Parliament, most of them Puritans, fear England becoming Catholic again.
