Answer:
I am assuming that ABCD is a square and BEC is an equilateral triangle.
EC=BC (sides of an equilateral Δ are equal)
CD=BC(sides of square)
⇒EC=CD
∠CED=∠CDE(angles opposite to equal sides are equal) [1]
∠ECB+∠BCD = ∠ECD
60°+90° = ∠ECD (angles of square and equilateral Δ)
∠ECD = 150° [2]
Consider ΔECD,
∠ECD+∠CED+∠CDE = 180°(angle sum theory of a triangle)
150°+2∠CED = 180° (by [1] and [2] )
2∠CED = 30°
∠CED = 15° [3]
∠BEC = 60° (angle of an equilateral Δ)
∠BEC = ∠BED+∠CED
60° = ∠x + 15° (by [3] )
∠x = 60°-15° = 45°
