Two long line segments, on the left and right, with a top vertex. A line segment divides the angle at the vertex into two angles. Each angle is marked with two blue arcs. Another two line segments connect the endpoint below the dividing line segment to a point along each of the long line segments, where they are then marked with small blue square shapes. The connecting line segment on the left is labeled $9$9, while the right leg is labeled $x$x.
Find the value of $x$x.
