Answer:  D) 8 inches

====================================================

Work Shown:

Refer to the diagram below.

A = 50 degrees

B = unknown

C = 80 degrees

-----

For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180

A+B+C = 180

50+B+80 = 180

B+130 = 180

B = 180-130

B = 50 degrees

Since angles B and C are the same measure, their opposite sides are the same length. Triangle ABC is isosceles. Therefore, a = x = 8

Answer: D) 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation: The triangle has three angles: two were given (50º and 80º) and the other one can be calculated (50º). Therefore, this triangle is an isosceles triangle, it has one base and two congruent sides. Since the one side is 8in, then the other missing side must also be 8in according to the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.
