  2. Complete the rectangle ABDF.
    Join BF to intersect AD at O.
    AC = BD = AF
    CB = CD and OB = OD imply CO is the
    perpendicular bisector of BD
    and hence of AF as well.
    Follows AC = FC and triangle ACF is equilateral.
    So x = supplement of angle CAF = 120 degrees.

  3. Drop perpendiculars CG and CF to AB and BD. Then BGCF is a rectangle and FC= BG=1/2BD=AC. So Tr. FAC is 30-60-90.
    Hence x = 120
