By GeoGebra   x=20°  With given angles x can′t be  determined.  I think one should consider  measures of the sides in order  to determine the required angle.

For diagram see comment below.  In △ACB           ∠CAB=10+70=80  and   ∠CBA=20+60=80  ∵   ∠CAB=∠CBA=80  ∴ AC=BC   [Opposite sides to congruent angles]  Also  ∠C=180−2×80=20  In △AFB,    ∠AFB=180−70−60=50  So,    ∠EFB=180−50=130  and in △EFB      ∠FEB=180−20−130=30    Let  AC=BC=1  In △AEC ,     AC=1,∠C=20,∠CAE=10                 So,          ∠AEC=180−20−10=150                  By Sine law                   ((CE)/(sin 10))=((AC)/(sin 150))=(1/(sin 150))                     CE=((sin 10)/(sin 150))   Similarly in △BDC,   BC=1,∠C=20,∠CBD=20 & ∠BDC=140                         ((CD)/(sin 20))=((BC)/(sin 140))=(1/(sin 140))                      CD=((sin 20)/(sin 140))    Now in △CDE,   According to Sine law                       ((CE)/(sin (160−y)))=((CD)/(sin y))                      ((sin (160−y))/(sin y))=((CE)/(CD))=((sin 10)/(sin 150))/((sin 20)/(sin 140))                      ((sin 160 cos y−cos 160 sin y)/(sin y))=((sin 10 sin 140)/(sin 20sin 150))                    sin 160 cot y=((sin 10 sin 140)/(sin 20sin 150))+cos 160                                              =((sin 10 sin 140+sin 20sin 150cos 160)/(sin 20sin 150))                     cot y=((sin 10 sin 140+sin 20sin 150cos 160)/(sin 20sin 150sin 160))                     tan y=((sin 20sin 150sin 160)/(sin 10 sin 140+sin 20 sin 150 cos 160))                     y=tan^(−1) (((sin 20sin 150sin 160)/(sin 10 sin 140+sin 20 sin 150 cos 160)))=130 (If 0<y<180)                                                                       [With the help of  calculator]         x=180−y−30=150−130=20
