Explanation:

what should you do ? find x ?

both angles are complementary on one side of a straight line.

the sum of all angles around 1 point on one side of a line is airways 180 degrees.

so,

5x + 10 + 2x - 5 = 180

7x + 5 = 180

7x = 175

x = 25

therefore,

5x + 10 = 5×25 + 10 = 135 degrees

2x - 5 = 2×25 -5 = 45 degrees
