$$\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}})-\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x})=105,$$
so, taking the tangent of both sides, and, using the identity
$$\tan(A-B)=\frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1+\tan A \tan B},$$
together with
$$\tan(\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}))=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\quad \text{ and }\quad \tan(\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}}))=\sqrt{x},$$
we have
$$\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}-\sqrt{x}=2\tan 105.$$
Multiplying throughout by √x and rearranging,
$$x+2\sqrt{x}\tan 105-1=0,$$
which is a quadratic in √x.
Solving that, and taking the positive root gets √x≈7.595754.
To show that this satifies the original equation, remember that arctan is multivalued.
$$\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}})-\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x})=(7.5+k_{1}180)-(82.5+k_{2}180),$$
where k1 and k2 are integers.
k1 = 1 and k2 = 0 produces the result 105, but there are an infinite number of other possibles.
atan(1/sqrt(x))-atan(sqrt(x)) = 105

Umm, that doesn't look very helpful does it!
arctan(1/√x) and arctan(√x) are angles.
If you take the tangent of the equation and use the usual identity
tan(A - B) = (tan A - tan B)/(1 + tan A.tan B)
you finish up with a quadratic in √x.
I don't have time to type it in at the moment, I'll do so later if it hasn't been done in the meantime.
Also, is that 105 degrees or radians ? My guess is degrees.
Hallo
$$\alpha =atan(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}})=atan(\frac{1}{u})$$
$$\beta =atan(\sqrt{x})==atan(u)$$
$$\alpha + \beta \quad must \quad be \quad 90\;degrees!$$
In a right-angled triangle with "u" one Side and "1" another Side
$$\tan(\alpha)=\frac{1}{u}$$ and $$\tan(\beta)=\frac{u}{1}$$
$$atan(\tan(\alpha))=atan(\frac{1}{u})=\alpha$$
$$atan(\tan(\beta))=atan(\frac{u}{1})=\beta$$
In a right-angled triangle $$\alpha + \beta = 90\;degrees$$
$$\alpha - \beta \quad cannot \quad be \quad greater \quad than \quad 90\; degrees.$$
$$\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}})-\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x})=105,$$
so, taking the tangent of both sides, and, using the identity
$$\tan(A-B)=\frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1+\tan A \tan B},$$

$$\tan(\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}))=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\quad \text{ and }\quad \tan(\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{x}}))=\sqrt{x},$$
