Question

Among the two supplementary angles the measure of the larger angle is 20 times more than the smaller angle. Find their measures

Answer 1

Let x = measure of smaller angle then x+36 = measure of larger angle . x + x+36 = 180 2x+36 = 180 2x = 144 x = 72 degrees (smaller angle) . Larger angle: x+36 = 72+36 = 108 degrees (larger angle)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = measure of smaller angle then x+36 = measure of larger angle . x + x+36 = 180 2x+36 = 180 2x = 144 x = 72 degrees (smaller angle) . Larger angle: x+36 = 72+36 = 108 degrees (larger angle)
