If AB and CD are sides of the trapezoid and not bases, then x = 10. (both of the sides are the same in an isosceles trapezoid.

Not very clear. If BA and CD are not the bases then
BA = CD by isosceles and 15 = x + 5 then x = 10.

If this is not the case, there is not enough information.

You need more information here to let us know where BA and CD are located on the trapezoid.

sides of an isoceles trapezoid are equal. Therefore x=10
