Given,
AB = BC, DA = AC, and angles DCB and ABC are right angles
Now angle ABC = 90
and AB = BC
which implies, angle BAC = BCA = 45
angle DCB = 90
angle ACD + angle ACB = 90
angle ACD =45
Now we also know that AD = AC
which implies angle ADC =45
x + 45 + 45 = 180
x =90
IMO D

ABC and ADC are isosceles right angled triangle; Hence, X = 90 degrees
