Answer:


x=50\\ \\m\angle a=m\angle (x+75)^(\circ)=m\angle (2x+25)^(\circ)=m\angle e=125^(\circ)\\ \\m\angle b=m\angle c=m\angle d=m\angle f=55^(\circ)

Explanation:

Part A.

Angles with measures
(2x+25)^(\circ) and
(x+75)^(\circ) are alternate interior angles when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. By Alternate Interior Angles theorem,


2x+25=x+75\\ \\2x-x=75-25\\ \\x=50

Part B.

Angles a and
(x+75)^(\circ) are congruent as vertical angles, so


m\angle a=(50+75)^(\circ)=125^(\circ)

Angles
(x+75)^(\circ) and d are the same side interior angles, so the add up to 180°, thus


m\angle d=180^(\circ)-125^(\circ)=55^(\circ)

Angles d and f are congruent as vertical angles.

Angles e and
(2x+25)^(\circ) are congruent as vertical angles.

Angles c and d are congruent as alternate interior angles.

Angles c and b are congruent as vertical angles.

Therefore,


m\angle a=m\angle (x+75)^(\circ)=m\angle (2x+25)^(\circ)=m\angle e=125^(\circ)\\ \\m\angle b=m\angle c=m\angle d=m\angle f=55^(\circ)
