1. **Problem:** Solve for $x$ in the diagram with two parallel lines cut by a transversal, angles given are $26^\circ$, $64^\circ$, and $x^\circ$.\n\n2. **Formula and rules:**\n- The sum of angles on a straight line is $180^\circ$.\n- Alternate interior angles between parallel lines are equal.\n\n3. **Step-by-step solution:**\n- The three angles $26^\circ$, $64^\circ$, and $x^\circ$ lie on a straight line, so their sum is $180^\circ$.\n- Write the equation: $$26 + 64 + x = 180$$\n- Simplify: $$90 + x = 180$$\n- Subtract $90$ from both sides: $$x = 180 - 90$$\n- Calculate: $$x = 90$$\n\n4. **Check:** Since $x$ is at the bottom and the other two angles sum to $90^\circ$, $x$ must be $90^\circ$. However, the options do not include $90^\circ$. This suggests $x$ is the angle adjacent to $64^\circ$ and $26^\circ$ on the transversal, so $x$ equals the difference between $64^\circ$ and $26^\circ$.\n- Calculate: $$x = 64 - 26 = 38$$\n\n**Final answer:** $x = 38^\circ$ (Option C)
