SOLUTION: In an isosceles triangle, the third angle is ten times the measure of each of the congruent angles. What is the measure, in degrees, of the largest angle? This is what I came up

Question 956244: In an isosceles triangle, the third angle is ten times the measure of each of the congruent angles. What is the measure, in degrees, of the largest angle?
This is what I came up with: x+x+10X= 180 = 12x=180=15 = 10(15)= 150 degrees
