This is the geometry version of those stupid poorly written math equations. Engagement bait.
The real answer is always "it's unsolveable due to poor/missing notation".
But it's not unsolvable, just a misleading drawing...
It’s not unsolvable at all. The answer is x=135°. The triangles simply aren’t drawn to scale; The line between them isn’t a 90° angle, (even though it is drawn that way) because it is not specifically marked as 90° with a square angle mark.
