1. **Problem statement:** Find $x$ in the given figure where two parallel horizontal lines are cut by a transversal, with angles $x^\circ$ and $70^\circ$ as shown. 2. **Relevant rule:** When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate interior angles are equal. 3. **Apply the rule:** Since $x^\circ$ and $70^\circ$ are alternate interior angles, $$x = 70$$ 4. **Check for vertical angles:** The problem states $x^\circ$ is adjacent to $50^\circ$ in the top-left position hint, indicating vertical opposite angles. 5. **Vertical angles are equal:** So, $$x = 50$$ 6. **Conclusion:** The value of $x$ is $50^\circ$ based on vertical angles. **Final answer:** $$\boxed{50^\circ}$$
