Answer :

X is the hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle. The length of the sides are the difference of the inner and outer squares divided by 2. Which means that the sides of the triangle is 1.5 inches. Using that information, the length of X can be deduced to be 2.12 inches using Pythagoras theorem
