2. How did Oedipus became King of Thebes? a. He answered the Sphinx' riddle and defeated it.

b. He killed the old king.

C. It was his destiny.

a. He answered the Sphinx' riddle and defeated it.

Explanation:

When Oedipus was on his journey, he had to pass through Thebes and it was here that he encountered the Sphinx. It asked him to solve a riddle that no one else had so far been able to unless it would kill him.

Oedipus correctly answered the riddle and the Sphinx was so surprised that she threw herself into the sea and died. The Sphinx had been besieging Thebes and when she died, Oedipus was made King.

idk srry

explanation:

the author develops a cold, and scared tone. making the reader shudder with fear, and suddenly become cold. i'm guessing that he's writing a scary novel, or maybe about a chilly december night.
