    125°

    Edit: Damn I’m getting roasted for getting it wrong. I totally am wrong, but when I’ve been awake for only 5 minutes that’s bound to happen XD

      135° actually - left triangle has 40° and 60° which implies last angle is 80° not 90°

      Good on you for admitting fault, not deleting the post, and standing strong. I know you probably feel like a total braindead fucking moron right now - and you’d be right to - which may be the only thing you’ve gotten right in your whole life. /s

      It’s a trap. The drawing is misleading. If the left triangle already has 60° and 40° then only 80° remains. Meaning there’s no right angle. The vertical line should be leaning to the left slightly. The correct answer is 135°.

      Wrong, as the drawing is not representative. The inner lower angle for the right triangle has to be 100°, as such the inner upper angle has to be 45° and the X angle has to be 135°.

        Federation in action: 5 different people from 4 different instances correct OP, not knowing the others have done so, because federating the answers takes a minute.

      Not to scale. Left triangle shows that the centre tee is actually 80/100⁰, not two right angles. So right triangle is 100+35+45, angle x is 135⁰.
