Answer:

21

Explanation:

Using alternate interior angles, we can conclude that angle C is equal to X (the 3rd, unmarked angle in the center triangle)

To find that 3rd angle, we can do 180 - 105 - 54. This is because all angles in a triangle must equal 180. Using this, we find that angle C is equal to 21. By the law, X must also equal 21.
