Question

Among two supplimentary angles the measure of the larger angle is 44 degree more then the measure of the smaller. Find rhe other angle

Answer 1

Let's call the smaller angle , x.

The bigger angle is 44 degrees more than the measure of the smaller angle. So, that would make it x+ 44

Since both angles add up to 180 degrees, we have the equation

x + ( x+ 44) = 180

2x + 44 = 180

2x = 180 -44

2x = 136

x = 68

So, the smaller angle is 68 degrees and the bigger angle is 68 + 44 = 112 degrees.

To check,

68 + 112 = 180
