#x=-43#

Explanation:

Assuming that I am interpreting the diagram correctly:
1. we have an isosceles triangle
2. divided into 2 sub-triangles by the horizontal line
3. with the horizontal line bisecting the angle through which it passes.

If these assumptions are true then the two sub-triangles are congruent (SAS), and
#2x+136=50#

#rarr 2x=50-136=-86#

#rarr x=-43#
