Let the smaller angle be x
Larger angle = x+44
ATP
x+x+44=180⁰
=> 2x = 180-44
=> 2x = 136
=> x = 136/2
=> x = 68⁰
Therefore,
Smaller angle = x = 68⁰
Larger angle = x + 44 = 68⁰+44⁰ = 112⁰

Answer:
the sum of supplementary angles 180
let be first angle x
let second angle y
A.T.Q
x + y = 180 _______(i)
x = 180 - y
x = y + 44__________ (ii)
x - y = 44
180 - y - y = 44
- 2y = 44 - 180
- 2y = - 136
y = 136/2
y = 68
put the value of y in eq (i)
x + y = 180
x + 68 = 180
x = 180 - 68
x = 112
Hence, x + y = 180
112 + 68 = 180
