Answer:


25^(\circ)

Explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees, and each side of a straight line is equal to 180 degrees. Therefore, the exterior angle labelled
150^(\circ) must be equal to the sum of the two angles marked
125^(\circ) and
?^(\circ):


125+x=150,\\x=150-125=\boxed{25^(\circ)}

Thus, the missing angle is
25^(\circ).
