This is a clue for the first 10 terms of a cypher.
Only 5 terms are shown, but terms are reversible (eg, if A = B, then B = A as well)
The letters are J, M, R, S, and T and they are cyphered to the letters A, E, G, H and L.
The main puzzle is here:

One further hint: if you only look for what is there, you'll fail.

I didn't catch a word of that. Can you break it down for us non-codebreakers.
The final thing will look something like Y=D, Q=A, O=G, M=W, X=H, ie: 5 letters and what they are encoded.
The triangles are a puzzle which lets you work this out. The letter underneath each is the first letter, the letters in the triangle are a clue to what the letters are mapped to.
135 degrees is the clue you need to unlock the first letter, which will then lead you to the others.

135 degrees is South East on a compass.
