Given:
Among two supplementary angles the measure of the larger angles is 44 degrees more than the measure of the smaller.
Find:
The measure of each angle
Solution:
Let the larger angle be x + 44
Let the smaller angle be x
(Larger angle + smaller angle = 180°)
We know that
The sum of supplementary angles is 180°
=> 180 = x + x + 44
=> 180 = 2x + 44
=> 180 - 44 = 2x
=> 136 = 2x
=> 136/2 = x
=> x = 68
So,
Larger angle = x + 44 = 68+44 = 112°
Smaller angle = x = 68°
Hence, the measure of each angle is 68° and 112°
I hope it will help you.
Regards.
