    X is 10 so 2 (10) + 5 is 25 degrees for angle S

    Since the two angles are congruent, then 2x+5 and 5x-25 must be equal.

    2x+5=5x-25

    -3x+5=-25

    -3x=-30

    x=10

    Now we can plug in x=10 into the expression for angle S:

    2x+5 - - > 2 (10) + 5 = 25

    The measure of angle S is 25 degrees.
