As AO, BO and OC are the radiuses of the same circle, △AOB and △BOC both are isosceles. So,
[1st Attachment]
∠OAB=∠ABO=(180-75)/2=52.5 and
∠OCB=∠OBC=(180-35)/2=72.5
Now, ∠x+∠ABO+∠OBC=180 [Because of being a straight line]
So, ∠x=180-(∠ABO+∠OBC)
=180-(52.5+72.5)
=180-125
=55
So, finally: ∠x=55
Answer: B

But is it mentioned that O is the centre of the circle?
