By using the corresponding angles theorem we can see that (6x - 5)° and (x - 25)° are supplementary angles, so they add up to 180°.

This means that:

(6x - 5) + (x - 25) = 180

7x - 30 = 180

7x = 210

x = 30

If you want to find the exact values of the angles, just plug x = 30 into the angle values! :)
