Correct Answer: 60
Solution : Let the base angle be $x$. Given, that the vertex angle is twice the sum of base angles. The sum of base angles = 2$x$ So, vertex angle = 4$x$ We know the sum of angles of a triangle is 180$^\circ$. So, $x$ + $x$ + 4$x$ = 180$^\circ$ Or, $x$ = 30$^\circ$ Half of vertex angle = 2$x$ = 60$^\circ$ Hence, the correct answer is 60.
