In the figure above, the vertices of triangle ABC lie on the circumference of circle O. What is the value of x?

(A) 35
(B) 45
(C) 55
(D) 65
(E) 70


Since sides OC and OB are radii, side OC = side OB, creating an isosceles triangle, and thus angle OCB = angle OBC = x.

Thus, we have:

2x + 70 = 180

2x = 110

x = 55

Answer: C

I'm puzzled. If one solve for angle AOB, it would imply a different result. Why?
