This question was uploaded on 07/12/21 on social media accounts.

Solution 1:

60 and (20+x) are on the same arc AB:
\[\Rightarrow \frac{60}2 = 20+x\]
\[\Rightarrow x = 10\]

Solution 2:

Triangle OAB is isosceles:
\[\Rightarrow 20+20+x = 50\]
\[\Rightarrow x = 10\]

Solution 3:

Triangle ABC is isosceles and triangle ACD is equilatereal:
\[\Rightarrow 50+x = 60\]
\[\Rightarrow x = 10\]
