Answer: B

Explanation:

Use the exterior angle theorem, which states that the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles.

In this case: 120-x= 10+x+60

Simplifying it by combining like terms: 120-x=70+x

Solving by isolating the variable: 50= 2x, x=25

Now use what we know, which is that angle A is 35 degrees, and angle B is 60, to find out that the correct answer is B, 85 degrees.
