5) If an angle is 6º less than twice its
supplement, how much d immuneoes each ar
measure?
Answers
Correct question -
If an angle is 6 degree less than twice of its supplement then how much both of the angles measure .
Solution -
Supplementary angles - There sum is equal to 180 degree.
Let's assume that one angle is x° .
and 2nd angle as y° .
According to the question , other angle will be -
→ y = 2x° - 6
Sum is = 180°
→ x+y = 180°
→ x +2x -6 = 180°
→ 3x = 186°
→
→ x = 62° is the first angle.
→ y = 2(62) - 6
→ y = 124 - 6
→ y = 118° .
Verification -
→ 62 + 118 = 180°
Hence verified .

Correct Question :-
▪ If an angle is 6° less than twice its supplement, how much the measure of each angle.
_______________________________
Concept :-
Supplementary Angle :- Two angles are said to be
supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180°
➦ Two supplementary angles are called the supplement to each other.
Solution :-
Let, the first angle be x
and the second angle be y
According to the question
Angle is 6 less than twice its supplement
then,
y = ( 2x-6) ................................(i)
Now,
sum of two angles is 180°
x + y = 180°
x + 2x-6= 180° ......(using equation 1st)
x +2x = 180° + 6°
3x = 186 °
x = 186/3
x= 62°
∴The measure of 1st angle is 62°
and the measure of second angle
2x - 6 = 2 × 62 -6 = 124 - 6 = 118°
