When you say == the answer is always correct -- does that mean even when the answer is wrong? If so, then there's something else going on here.

But, I believe the answer is:

if  ($_REQUEST['x'] == $correct_answers[$page-1]) {

This will compare the two and if they are the same will report true. You should read the manual.
