Answer:

  x = 19

  A = 30°

  B = C = 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the congruent sides have the same measures.

  A = B

  3x +18 = 7x -58

  76 = 4x . . . . . . . . add 58-4x

  19 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

Then the equal angles measure ...

  A = B = 3(19) +18 = 75

  C = 2(19) -8 = 30

Angles A, B, C measure 75°, 75°, 30°, respectively.

_____

Alternate solution

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, so you could write ...

  (3x +18) +(7x -58) +(2x -8) = 180

  12x = 228 . . . . . add 48

  x = 19 . . . . . divide by 12
