Answer:
- The base angles of an isosceles triangle are the angles formed by the base and one leg of the triangle. The base angles theorem converse states if two angles in a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are also congruent.
- Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides“.
[tex]x = \sqrt{ {7}^{2} + {7}^{2} } \\ x= \sqrt{49 + 49} \\ x = \sqrt{98} \\ x= \sqrt{49 \times 2} \\ \boxed{x= 7 \sqrt{2} }[/tex]

A. 7
B. 14
✓C. 7√2
D. 7√2/2
C. is the right answer.
