In a triangle, the sum of the three angles is always 180 degrees.
Given that one of the base angles is x degrees and the angle between the two sides is 38 degrees, we can set up the equation:
x + 38 + 180 = 180
Simplifying the equation, we have:
x + 38 = 180 - 180
x + 38 = 0
Subtracting 38 from both sides, we get:
x = 0 - 38
x = -38
Therefore, the value of x is -38 degrees.
Given that one of the base angles is x degrees and the angle between the two sides is 38 degrees, we can set up the equation:

Simplifying the equation, we have:
x + 38 = 180 - 180
x + 38 = 0
Subtracting 38 from both sides, we get:
x = 0 - 38
x = -38
Therefore, the value of x is -38 degrees.
