This is a parallelogram, as indicated by the pairs of opposite sides being marked parallel.

In a parallelogram:
1. Opposite angles are equal.
2. Adjacent angles are supplementary (sum up to 180°).

Let's solve for \( x \):

1. **Set up the equation using the property of supplementary angles:**
   \[
   (x + 35^\circ) + (2x - 15^\circ) = 180^\circ
   \]

2. **Combine like terms:**
   \[
   x + 2x + 35^\circ - 15^\circ = 180^\circ
   \]
   \[
   3x + 20^\circ = 180^\circ
   \]

3. **Solve for \( x \):**
   \[
   3x = 180^\circ - 20^\circ
   \]
   \[
   3x = 160^\circ
   \]
   \[
   x = \frac{160^\circ}{3}
   \]
   \[
   x = 53.33^\circ
   \]

So, \( x = 53.33^\circ \).
